Sustaining The Vision: Best Practices For Design, Implementation And Service, Susan Mcmullen, Betsy Peck Learned
Sustaining The Vision: Best Practices For Design, Implementation And Service, Susan Mcmullen, Betsy Peck Learned
Library Faculty Publications
Librarians from Roger Williams University developed a model of best practices for planning library space projects while planning the first phase of the Learning Commons. They visited and gathered data from 18 libraries with recently-reconfigured spaces, tapped into their collective wisdom, and distilled it to a list of pragmatic, universally applicable best practices. Using examples from their own project and those of the libraries they visited, the presentation describes how to lay the groundwork for planning, incorporate the lessons learned, and achieve buy-in for the project.

Revitalizing The One-Shot Instruction Session Using Problem-Based Learning, Barbara Kenney
Revitalizing The One-Shot Instruction Session Using Problem-Based Learning, Barbara Kenney
Library Faculty Publications
Problem-based learning (PBL) provides the theoretical framework for a learner-centered active instructional experience that relies on collaboration, critical thinking, and hands-on interaction with resources. When used in a one-shot session, PBL challenges the instruction librarian to strengthen and renew their pedagogical skills. Sessions are lively and provide the opportunity for students and faculty to experience library instruction in a new and dynamic way. PBL and information literacy are ideal partners with limitless possibilities for enhanced library instruction.
