We concluded that collective impact is a specific form of collaboration.

Criss Library Faculty Publications
Science is a core discipline in academia yet the focus of most undergraduate technical writing is generally on the data and results, not the literature review.

Here we outline the background of the campus STEM initiatives and the assignment as well as the library instruction activity, learning outcomes, and assessment components. The activity improved student use of scholarly sources and we provide suggested activity modifications for …
