Students who know their way around the physical library and the library's rich array of electronic resources are better students! Librarians help students learn to navigate library resources and by teaching information literacy skills.
Library instruction sessions focus on developing information literacy skills and navigating resources for research-based assignments. Library instruction is most meaningful when connected with course content and assignments. Your librarian will collaborate with you to talk about how to tailor the information literacy session(s) and assessments so that they fit the needs of your specific class. Note: While it is tempting to try and pack-in "everything about the library" in one session. Engaging with Library resources and Information Literacy more tailored sessions tend to be more effective in engaging students with the resources, the content, and their own learning.
To schedule library instruction, please contact Jacquelyn Ray jacquelyn.ray@wwcc.edu or complete our handy form! Please give us at least a week before your session so we can plan and tailor our sessions, specifically for you and your students. We can do single or multiple sessions full class sessions, or multiple "bite-sized" sessions that closely address your student's point of need throughout the term.
