Opportunities for humanizing teaching and learning in poly-synchronous and hybrid instruction settings are undeniable blessings of having to adapt to COVID-19 predictable unpredictability. The ACRL Information Literacy Framework is one such instrument that ideally adapts to this purpose.

Reactors are those academics who simply moved their assessments online. Adaptive Responders modified assessments slightly for the online environment. While …
