Gently stretching to reach all students: Inclusive learning through scaffolding and flexible pedagogy | Baer | College & Research Libraries News

From crln.acrl.org - April 8, 2021 6:36 PM
Being flexible and responsive to students’ unique learning needs is a powerful skill in any teaching context, but it is perhaps especially valuable in one-shot library instruction, when a librarian has limited time with students and is often meeting them for the first time. Because librarians frequently enter the classroom with limited information about a class’s dynamics and its students’ current understandings, abilities, and interests, we often find ourselves needing to adapt in the moment of teaching more than we would if we had a more extensive connection to that class.

From sites.psu.edu - January 21, 2019 3:52 PM
In 2014, I attended the LOEX conference in Grand Rapids, Michigan. It was a short trip – I went long enough to present and take in a few sessions. Little did I know that one of the sessions I attended would form the basis for one of the biggest projects our instructional team would undertake…
 
The room was packed for “Inquiry-Based Learning Online: Designing and Delivering a Blended and Embedded Information Literacy Program,” by Alan Carbery and Janet Cottrell from Champlain College. They told the story of the steps their information literacy program took to adapt when Champlain changed its entire gen. ed. program, a program the librarians had previously been fully integrated into.

“Hands-Off” Teaching: Conversation as Pedagogy in Library Instruction

“Hands-Off” Teaching: Conversation as Pedagogy in Library Instruction | Information and digital literacy in education via the digital path | Scoop.it
From www.digitalpedagogylab.com - September 28, 2016 5:16 PM

I have an abiding belief that learning begins in conversation. Both instincts and my own experience in the classroom tell me that when you engage a student in conversation about their “topic” you are often engaging them in a way that gives voice to an idea that has just been rolling around in their heads, one they may be really struggling with and not even know how to approach. When they engage with each other, they become part of what I have previously called a community of scholars — making meaning and contributing to knowledge together. Which is also how learning happens.

SLS Guernsey's curator insight, July 10, 2014 1:08 PM

This makes interesting reading. I think that both are important in their own way so you really should be teaching both.
Maria João Loureiro's curator insight, July 12, 2014 8:24 AM

Embora não esteja focado na escrita académica, tem pistas que podem ajudar, uma delas passa por "criar visualizações" do texto (que pode ser muito útil para quem tem estilos mais visuais se forem imagens). Junto a sugestão de fazer tabelas que ajudem a sintetizar as leituras e facilitem recuperar as fontes de informação e o seu cruzamento.

Active Learning and Library Instruction | The Information Literacy Land of Confusion

Active Learning and Library Instruction | The Information Literacy Land of Confusion | Information and digital literacy in education via the digital path | Scoop.it
From www.information-literacy.net - February 8, 2014 11:22 AM

Active Learning and Library Instructionby Michael Lorenzen

(This article was original published in Illinois Libraries, 83, no. 2 (Spring 2001): 19-24.) From the beginning of academic library instruction in the United States, it was noted that perhaps lecturing was not the most effective way of educating students about the library. In 1886, Davis wrote about his frustrations in teaching students about the library who were not learning anything from his lectures. This phenomenon has been noticed by many other librarians as well. The assumption that library instruction should be lectured based probably has driven the opposition of many academic librarians to library instruction. After all, if lecturing to students about library use does not work, why do it? Active learning, also known as cooperative learning, is a model of instruction that many academic librarians have turned towards to better help students learn about the library in the classroom.

Experimentation in academic libraries: How to do it, and why libraries need it | Copper | College & Research Libraries News

From crln.acrl.org - February 13, 2020 4:15 PM
One of the most sought after skills in innovation industries is curiosity. The brilliant thing about curiosity is anybody is capable of it. It does not require intelligent genes or an expensive education. The only requirement is a willingness to try something new. Trying new things is how we advance our disciplines, so curiosity is key to any innovative field. Not surprisingly, curiosity often manifests in experimentation because experimentation, at its core, is about trying new things.

8 Best Practices for Collaborating on Flipped Library Sessions | Faculty Focus

8 Best Practices for Collaborating on Flipped Library Sessions | Faculty Focus | Information and digital literacy in education via the digital path | Scoop.it
From www.facultyfocus.com - August 28, 2019 2:53 PM

A common practice at many colleges and universities involves course faculty inviting librarians into their classrooms to teach research and information literacy skills and concepts customized to disciplinary or course needs. Library instruction varies in format but often manifests in the librarian teaching a single, isolated class session—what librarians refer to as a “one-shot.” Many challenges accompany this traditional format, including time-constraints, disengaged audiences, and little understanding on the part of the student as to how the library instruction integrates with course content.

Why we need a new approach to teaching digital literacy 

Why we need a new approach to teaching digital literacy  | Information and digital literacy in education via the digital path | Scoop.it
From www.kappanonline.org - March 11, 2018 9:42 AM

Although we face a digital challenge, educators have relied on a distinctly analog approach to solving it. The most prominent digital literacy organizations in the United States and Canada instruct students to evaluate the trustworthiness of online sources using checklists of 10 to 30 questions. (Common Sense Media, the News Literacy Project, Canada’s Media Smarts, the University of Rhode Island’s Media Education Lab, and the American Library Association all disseminate website evaluation checklists.)  Such lists include questions like: Is a contact person provided? Are the sources of information identified? Is the website a .com (supposedly bad) or a .org (supposedly good)? 

Elizabeth E Charles's insight:
Great argument for information/digital literacy being embedded into the curriculum rather than just relying on a one-shot session.

Technology as a facilitator - The symbiosis between technology and user education ~ libfocus - Irish library blog

Technology as a facilitator - The symbiosis between technology and user education ~ libfocus - Irish library blog | Information and digital literacy in education via the digital path | Scoop.it
From www.libfocus.com - April 16, 2016 6:25 PM
Autumn last year I and a colleague published a chapter in an anthology, published by National Library of Sweden, called “Technology as a facilitator” in Swedish “Teknik som facilitator”. Since we have worked together for such a long time, over 20 years, the purpose was to combine our experiences from change in technology and its effect on user education (library instructions). It was an exciting journey back in time and an interesting reflection in the rearview mirror on the symbiosis between the two.
Elizabeth E Charles's insight:
The original Swedish chapter can be downloaded.
