Instruction
Schedule a Librarian Led Workshop for Your Class
Will your students be doing any research in your classes? Help them to succeed by scheduling an instruction session or workshop with a librarian. Librarians can not only instruct students how to use resources effectively, but they can lead sessions designed to improve student’s information literacy skills, such as evaluating sources, understanding ethical use of information, creating effective search strategies, and more. Sessions can be held in person or virtually.
Other Instruction
Librarians can also be embedded in your online courses, help design research assignments for your students, or provide asynchronous instruction.
