Contact: [email protected] Case Studies and Pervasive Instruction: Using Journalism Education Techniques in the Information Literacy Classroom Abstract Purpose: The purpose of this paper is to explore whether journalism education techniques can be adapted for use in the information literacy classroom as a means of teaching the ethical use of information. Design: The author uses personal experience as a journalist and graduate of journalism education programs to examine the similarities between journalism pedagogy and information literacy, and whether any aspect of journalism pedagogy is transferrable to the information literacy classroom. Findings: Journalism educators deliver a potent anti-plagiarism message using case studies and “war stories” from the newsroom delivered through the pervasive instruction method or stand- alone ethics class. Using case studies from a variety of different disciplines in information literacy classes could help students make a stronger connection between honest writing in all subjects. However, until information literacy is taught more widely in libraries as semester-long classes it would be difficult to use journalism’s pervasive method of instruction. The same holds true with the stand-alone class, which does not appear to be used as part of information literacy education.

  • Peacekeepers and Human Trafficking Dulce Gamino
    Peacekeepers as unpunished perpetrators: “The invisible line between Impunity and Diplomatic Immunity in Human Trafficking” by Dulce A. Gamiño Introduction Human Trafficking has become the third most profitable business for organized crime after drugs and arms trade1. Although slavery was abolished in the 19th century and the Universal Declaration of Human Rights established in 1948 that “all human beings are born free and equal in dignity and rights”2. Degrading or inhuman treatment of men, women and children, however, has not been eradicated completely. Nowadays, human slavery has adopted a new face of trade that varies from the original form of the 19th century, creating a global clandestine market. In 2012, the International Labour Organization (ILO) estimated a number of 20.9 million victims of human slavery worldwide. Most of them are exploited in the private economy by individuals or enterprises. Of the total number of victims 68% are held in forced labour exploitation such as agriculture, construction and domestic work or manufacturing, 22% are working in forced sexual exploitation, a market in which women and children are the most recurrent victims3 and 10% in state-imposed forced labor in prisons, in work imposed by the state military or by rebel armed forces. However, the statistics of trafficking victims cannot be completely measurable due to the lack of accountability of many governments and international institutions and to the illegal nature of human trafficking. The complex nature of this organized crime relies on multiple political, economical and social inter-related factors such as manmade disasters like state and inter-state wars, corruption, poverty, unemployment, migration, displacement and humanitarian intervention in conflicts.
