Using Social Media In The Classroom: Assessment Of Its Effectiveness., Jennifer Wright Aug 2014

Using Social Media In The Classroom: Assessment Of Its Effectiveness., Jennifer Wright

Jennifer Wright Joe

Social media can be an effective tool in promoting critical thinking and collaboration in library instruction. Whether it is simple polls or a much more collaborative event, these methods engage students and allow them to interact with material, professors, and other students in an organized fashion that might not be feasible without the use of technology. However, many faculty members are quick to incorporate these new learning tools without regard to their effectiveness. In this session, several applications of social media will be presented and their effectiveness will be discussed. Then, to conclude, the participants will discuss the best way …

Conceptualizing Cultural Literacy As A Key Concept In Researching Caribbean Cultural Groups, Ardis Hanson Jun 2014

Conceptualizing Cultural Literacy As A Key Concept In Researching Caribbean Cultural Groups, Ardis Hanson

Ardis Hanson

There is an emphasis on evidence-based and evidence-informed practice in the social and behavioral sciences. Students in those fields are expected to achieve certain competencies that demonstrate their ability to conduct research. However, students at the undergraduate and graduate levels are often at a loss as to how to optimize their search strategies across multiple, online databases. This is particularly true when researching minority or ‘hidden’ populations. Using a shared, situated interactional approach, I offer a ‘lessons learned’ case study to guide graduate students through the information-seeking process across cultural groups. I describe the differences in faculty and librarians’ perceptions …

How To Set Up An Erm In Your Library Without Killing Your Coworkers (And Vice Versa), Jon Hansen May 2014

How To Set Up An Erm In Your Library Without Killing Your Coworkers (And Vice Versa), Jon Hansen

Jon Hansen

As libraries shift more and more of the journals and books from print to online, keeping up with them makes an Electronic Resource Manager (ERM) more and more of a necessity. But setting up an ERM is no small task, and one that can put a strain on a library. This presentation will cover one library's experience with setting up an ERM, and what your organization can learn from our choices.


A Tableau Vivant Of Il Classrooms: The Multimodal/Multisensory Experience For The Teaching And Learning Of Threshold Concept.”, Kathleen Langan May 2014

A Tableau Vivant Of Il Classrooms: The Multimodal/Multisensory Experience For The Teaching And Learning Of Threshold Concept.”, Kathleen Langan

Kathleen Langan

The Association of College and Research Libraries’ (ACRL) release of the Draft Framework for Information Literacy (IL) for Higher Education well positions those who teach IL to reflect on identifying and defining learning. What is learning? Is it a stagnant, finite event or is it a process? Are there always artifacts that are tangible testaments to the act of learning? If not, then how do we measure it? Does teacher bias hinder learning and our understanding of students and what they know? I present my journey and how I found answers to these questions in the philosophy of rhetoric espoused …

Powerpoint Slides For Big Data, Big Libraries, Big Problems?: The 2014 Libtech Anti-Talk?, Nathan A. Rinne Mr. Mar 2014

Powerpoint Slides For Big Data, Big Libraries, Big Problems?: The 2014 Libtech Anti-Talk?, Nathan A. Rinne Mr.

Nathan A Rinne Mr.

The desire to create automatons is a familiar theme in human history, and during the age of the Enlightenment mechanical automatons became not only an “emblem of the cosmos”, but a symbol of man’s confidence that he would unlock nature’s greatest mysteries and fully harness her power. And yet only a century later, automatons had begun to represent human repression and servitude, a theme later picked up by writers of science fiction. Man’s confidence undeterred, the endgame of the modern scientific and technological mindset, or MSTM, seems to be increasingly coming into view with the rise of “information technology” in …

Inverting The Corporate Pyramid (Lessons From An Infantryman), Robert Clements

Robert Clements

This presentation outlines a different Mental Model of organizational structures and upends the Corporate Pyramid and balances it on it point. This inverted model places the leaders at the bottom of the pyramid and defines loose roles for each successive layer. The top most layer represents the interface of the organization to its external enviroment. Unlike traditional top down structures, this model seeks to identify that poor implementation of various aspects of job performance can send fault lines up through the organization. The foundational managements perspective is that they support the work force above it and that all levels must …

Using Rubrics For Information Literacy Skill Assessment: A Case Study For Business Education, Bobbi Makani, Ann Agee, Marilyn Easter, Yuhfen Diana H. Wu Jan 2014

Using Rubrics For Information Literacy Skill Assessment: A Case Study For Business Education, Bobbi Makani, Ann Agee, Marilyn Easter, Yuhfen Diana H. Wu

Diana H. Wu

Information literacy—the ability to find, evaluate and use information effectively—is an essential skill set. The authors examine how assignments such as case analyses and research reports help business students master these abilities and provide examples of how analytic rubrics with measurable outcomes are particularly suited to assessing these skills. Also demonstrated is how librarians enhance and support student learning of information literacy by teaching in-depth research skills. Working together, professors and librarians can give students a solid foundation in the information-handling skills they need to be effective and productive in the workplace today.
