CCII emphasizes information literacy as it relates to the evolution of consensus (and dissensus). The course introduces students to rhetorical strategies, asks them to identify and analyze forms of argumentation, and requires them to write a variety of well-researched and ethically responsible arguments. Students work to become independent researchers who can find relevant information from a variety of sources (both academic and non-academic, traditional text and digital) and evaluate and present that information to an academic audience.
