Making Their Web 2.0 Space an Information Literacy Space

by M. Spiegelman and R. Glass

 

 

100 word abstract

 

 

This presentation highlights an innovative collaboration that utilized course blogs to incorporate information literacy as an integral and assessable component of three math/computer science courses. Blogs provided a unique environment where the instruction librarian extended interaction with students beyond the traditional instruction sessions and enhanced student/librarian relationships in a friendly, approachable manner. At the same time, librarian and classroom instructor partnered on research assignments, commented on student work and shared their respective expertise in the virtual environment. This Web 2.0 tool, which was free and easy to use, spoke to the "social network" generation in terms they understood.

    Anonymous:What do you think? i combined some of the things we wrote for cyber shed with what you had from the other acrl abstract. it's just about 100 words ( maybe 99)
    Richard Glass:I like the last sentence because it ties it all together but it just repeats what comes before. you may just want to revert back to what i started with. see the revert instructions on the sidebar.
