Are we teaching students to be conscious users of information, or to just accept what they see in print or on the screen? In the old days of textbook delivered curriculum we never asked students to question the authorship of their textbooks. Instead, we just taught from them assuming they were valid. This helped build the concept that, if something appears in print, it must be true.
