Join your colleagues to learn about successful strategies for teaching college-level information literacy concepts and skills, like...
- developing meaningful research questions
- constructing effective search statements
- using controlled vocabulary successfully
- evaluating sources for reliability and relevancy
- using information ethically
Each presentation will be 15 to 30 minutes long and will demonstrate a successful lesson plan or learning activity - or a relevant portion of a lesson plan or learning activity - that is used in any of a number of instructional capacities, i.e., in one-shot sessions, in partnership with other instructors, in information literacy credit bearing courses, as an embedded librarian, in online tutorials, etc.
The goal of this conference is for us to learn from one another, not just what we teach, but how we teach it.
A continental breakfast and a hot lunch is included.
