Time is a precious commodity in university classrooms, and library staff are often only given one opportunity to integrate information literacy principles into a course. How do you avoid simply lecturing at the students? How do you ensure they get the most out of the session?

 

This webinar will go through the steps of designing a one-shot library session— from consultations with faculty members and designing malleable lesson plans, to incorporating active learning. Tips, tricks, and loose guidelines will be provided to ensure that the next time you’re given one shot — you won’t miss the target.
 

Key outcomes:

Advice on how to devise realistic and relevant learning outcomes
Tips for incorporating active learning into short sessions
Suggestions for managing the expectations of faculty members
Guidelines on how to create a flexible lesson plan
