Keeping it Real(ly Useful): Finding Opportunities for Information Literacy in Your Classroom In-Person
Learners who can find and evaluate information are more successful as they continue their educations or enter the workforce. As students encounter discipline-specific readings and media, faculty can create opportunities for students to locate, evaluate, interpret, and synthesize information. In this one-day session, faculty will bring their existing SLO’s and syllabi for an “information literacy audit,” where librarians will help them to find opportunities - big and small - to incorporate information literacy in their classrooms.
Training will be at the Morristown Campus in the Instructional Design Training Room (CCEN 243) on Thursday, May 24, 2018 from 9:00 a.m. - 3:00 p.m. Please bring a laptop with you to the training sessions, or contact Vickie Mills (vickie.mills@ws.edu; 423.585.2694) ahead of time to reserve one. If you have questions on the content of this training, please contact Julie Lewis (julie.lewis@ws.edu; 423.585.6916).
Faculty members who successfully complete the session receive extra compensation of $50 (pre-tax) which goes into their payroll according to Payroll's established deadlines.
