Article examines digital savvy

Assistant Professor Bibi Reisdorf is co-author on an article that discusses how knowledge about how algorithms work is unequally distributed among Americans — and how this may affect how people perceive the information they find through search engines.

With her PhD student at Michigan State University, Kelley Cotter, Dr. Reisdorf has published “Algorithmic Knowledge Gaps: A New Dimension of (Digital) Inequality” in the new issue of International Journal of Communication.

The journal is open access, so the article is available for download at: https://ijoc.org/index.php/ijoc/article/view/12450
