An incentivized faculty Information Literacy (IL) fellows program was initiated to encourage IL integration and assessment across disciplines. This presentation will showcase the three cohorts of the faculty IL fellows program, with a focus on the deliberate scaffolding of the Library's IL outcomes into their syllabi, lessons and assignments. Spotlight will be on examples of "source evaluation" incorporated into the syllabi, lessons and assignments by faculty in two different disciplines, juxtaposed with the librarian's take on the same subject in a one-shot session. We will reflect on the benefits and challenges, and seek suggestions for improvement from the audience.
Participants will:
- examine the plan for scaffolding the Information Literacy outcomes into multidisciplinary courses in order to predict student success in an Information Literacy integrated course.
- review the differences between "source evaluation" in the redesigned sample courses and "source evaluation" in a one-shot lesson in order to be able to assess the most appropriate design for student success
