The Informationskompetenz-Unterricht at Stanmore School of Business was exactly what I needed to reach my research objectives. The curriculum walked me through the CRAAP test step‑by‑step, allowing me to assess the credibility of academic journals and industry reports with confidence. I applied the source‑evaluation checklist in my capstone project and received an A‑ for methodological rigor. The course materials—especially the interactive case studies and downloadable evaluation templates—were up‑to‑date and directly relevant to real‑world business scenarios. Overall, the instruction was professional, the assessments were challenging yet fair, and I finished the course feeling fully equipped to teach information‑literacy skills to my future colleagues.

I really liked the Informationskompetenz-Unterricht. It helped me finally get a grip on how to spot fake news and unreliable data, which was a big goal for me during my internship at a marketing agency. The instructor showed us a quick three‑step verification process that I now use every day when I’m gathering market stats. The videos were short and to the point, and the real‑world examples from Brazilian startups made the content feel relevant. I left the course feeling more confident about my research skills, even though I wish there had been a little more focus on social‑media analytics.

Wow, what an enthusiastic and inspiring experience! The Informationskompetenz-Unterricht blew my expectations away. I learned how to build a personal knowledge‑base using the Zettelkasten method, which I immediately applied to organize my thesis sources. The course provided practical worksheets for fact‑checking that I used in a student‑run workshop on digital literacy. The materials were not only high‑quality PDFs but also interactive quizzes that kept me engaged. Thanks to this course, I can now confidently guide my peers in evaluating information and have even been invited to present a session at our university’s research symposium.

The Informationskompetenz-Unterricht offered a detailed and well‑structured learning path that matched my professional development plan. Each module covered a specific skill—starting with basic source identification, moving through advanced data triangulation, and ending with ethical citation practices. I particularly appreciated the hands‑on assignment where we had to audit the information flow of a simulated company, which sharpened my ability to detect bias in internal reports. The course materials included up‑to‑date research articles, video lectures with subtitles, and a comprehensive bibliography that I have already added to my personal reference manager. My overall experience was very positive; the only improvement I would suggest is adding more live Q&A sessions to deepen discussion.
