Teaching Information Literacy: 35 Practical, Standards-based Exercises for College Students

Abstract

"This book, tied to the ACRL Information Literacy Competency Standards for Higher Education, provides, hands-on tools for reference and instruction librarians at colleges and community colleges as well as for others appointed to teach students how to conduct research." "Each exercise addresses one or more of the nationally accepted ACRL benchmark standards for information literacy education. The exercises promote conceptual and applied skills via active learning, problem-based learning, and resource-based learning. Ready to use and easy to modify, these 35 lessons can be used as a full semester course or as a single focused seminar or work shop. Covering the basics of planning, collecting, and evaluating, the exercises show how to access books and bibliographic information as well as periodicals and indexes, in addition to online sources."--BOOK JACKET.
