Quotes from the episode


If we're expecting our students to engage with scholarly articles, they're just not often going to have the background knowledge that is needed to be able to do that.

We can’t go through our lives or in the classroom thinking everything through with no heuristics, no shortcuts, no things that we can rely on credibly and reliably to take us to information that we do trust.
-Adrienne Warner

One of the outdated notions that we hear a lot and continue to hear at times is that Wikipedia is bad. And I think that it’s more nuanced than that, actually.
-Adrienne Warner

It’s less about saying any of these tools are better than the other, but that they have different uses, they have different values, they can all be a really valuable part of the research experience.
-Jane Hammons
