Blitz Week, Jan. 9, 2025, Plan a Library Workshop Week for Your Course

Many courses require a research paper or other assignment that involves information literacy practices, which means that the assignment completion relies heavily on the learner’s ability to locate, assess, and properly attribute credible sources. Join us in this session to get lesson ideas for embedding essential information literacy components directly into a course for a weeklong focus, regardless of your discipline. You will explore activities and assessments to help learners practice and strengthen core information literacy skills such as formatting sources, crafting citations, and using advanced search techniques.

Presenter: Melony Shemberger, Professor of Journalism and Mass Communications
