Fine Art Wiki:
Reflections on using the read/write
web to develop information literacy
skills in first year Fine Art students
Amanda Poulton
Academic Team Manager
(Learning and Skills Development)
De Montfort University
apoulton@dmu.ac.uk
Outline
• Background
• Programme re-development
• Theoretical context
• Evaluation and reflections
Background
• Library teaching input for number of years
in the Fine Art curriculum
• Variable feedback led to concerns by
Faculty and Library that teaching was not
effective
• Meeting with Head of Studies to establish
student profile and needs
Background
• Incorrect assumption that students in Art and
Design:
– Are unfamiliar with academic sources
– Have additional learning needs
– Are unused to producing written work
• Head of Studies revealed that Fine Art students:
– Have the highest average A level points at the
university
– Are highly motivated, confident and effective learners
Programme re-development
• Appropriate level content
• Aligned to needs of the programme
• Greater level of peer interaction and
engagement
• Integrate formative feedback
• More robust evaluation
Wiki task
• Wiki task set to provide practical
application of skills:
– Focussed on summer project set by the
Faculty to ensure relevance
– Enabled peer interaction and discussion
– Formative assessment took place in final
session
– Feedback provided on developing
information literacy skills
Links to the literature:
Group interaction
Students retention rates for group
interactivity rises to 70% and 80% for
doing real-life tasks compared to 10%
for reading
Glassner as quoted by Biggs and Tang (2007)
Links to the Literature:
Feedback
‘the most powerful enhancement to
learning is feedback during learning’
(p.97)
Biggs and Tang (2007)
Links to the Literature:
Peer learning
‘A high degree of learner activity’ (p.17)
and peer interaction are critical factors
in encouraging a deep approach to
learning.
Biggs as quoted by Toohey (1999)
Links to the Literature:
Deep vs surface learning
Surface approach to learning
– Focus on discrete elements without integration
Deep approach to learning
– Vigorous interaction with content
– Relate concepts to everyday experience
Entwhistle (1981) and Marton and Säljö (1976) as cited
by Savin-Baden and Major (2004, p.26)
Evaluation
• Confidence/skills in finding range of
information
• Confidence/skills in evaluating Internet
sources
• Wiki task helped understand how the
skills could be applied
• Enjoyed working on the wiki task
Evaluation
• Confidence/skills in finding range of
information – 97% agreed/strongly agreed
• Confidence/skills in evaluating Internet
sources – 94% agreed/strongly agreed
• Wiki task helped understand how the skills
could be applied – 92% agreed/strongly
agreed
• Enjoyed working on the wiki task – 83%
agreed/strongly agreed
Evaluation
Most interesting/useful:
Hearing what other
people had to say
and seeing their
different approaches
Communicating
within a group to
find information
resources
Finding useful
information about
the artist and
working in a group
Having the tools to
research
collaboratively as
well as individuals
Strengths of wiki task
• Provided context and application
• Provided focus for the session
• Facilitated peer interaction and learning
• Opportunity to provide formative
feedback
• Introduced students to wikis as a
research tool
Challenges of wiki task
• Patchy attendance by some group members
• Need to ensure only one group member edited
wiki page at one time
• Technically challenging to review other groups’
wiki pages
• Some students did not understand importance
of selecting and referencing (not just copying
and pasting)
• More in depth teaching needed for referencing

Fine Art Wiki: reflections on using the read/write web to develop information literacy skills in first year Fine Art students. Poulton

  • 1. Fine Art Wiki: Reflections on using the read/write web to develop information literacy skills in first year Fine Art students Amanda Poulton Academic Team Manager (Learning and Skills Development) De Montfort University apoulton@dmu.ac.uk
  • 2. Outline • Background • Programme re-development • Theoretical context • Evaluation and reflections
  • 3. Background • Library teaching input for number of years in the Fine Art curriculum • Variable feedback led to concerns by Faculty and Library that teaching was not effective • Meeting with Head of Studies to establish student profile and needs
  • 4. Background • Incorrect assumption that students in Art and Design: – Are unfamiliar with academic sources – Have additional learning needs – Are unused to producing written work • Head of Studies revealed that Fine Art students: – Have the highest average A level points at the university – Are highly motivated, confident and effective learners
  • 5. Programme re-development • Appropriate level content • Aligned to needs of the programme • Greater level of peer interaction and engagement • Integrate formative feedback • More robust evaluation
  • 6. Wiki task • Wiki task set to provide practical application of skills: – Focussed on summer project set by the Faculty to ensure relevance – Enabled peer interaction and discussion – Formative assessment took place in final session – Feedback provided on developing information literacy skills
  • 7. Links to the literature: Group interaction Students retention rates for group interactivity rises to 70% and 80% for doing real-life tasks compared to 10% for reading Glassner as quoted by Biggs and Tang (2007)
  • 8. Links to the Literature: Feedback ‘the most powerful enhancement to learning is feedback during learning’ (p.97) Biggs and Tang (2007)
  • 9. Links to the Literature: Peer learning ‘A high degree of learner activity’ (p.17) and peer interaction are critical factors in encouraging a deep approach to learning. Biggs as quoted by Toohey (1999)
  • 10. Links to the Literature: Deep vs surface learning Surface approach to learning – Focus on discrete elements without integration Deep approach to learning – Vigorous interaction with content – Relate concepts to everyday experience Entwhistle (1981) and Marton and Säljö (1976) as cited by Savin-Baden and Major (2004, p.26)
  • 11. Evaluation • Confidence/skills in finding range of information • Confidence/skills in evaluating Internet sources • Wiki task helped understand how the skills could be applied • Enjoyed working on the wiki task
  • 12. Evaluation • Confidence/skills in finding range of information – 97% agreed/strongly agreed • Confidence/skills in evaluating Internet sources – 94% agreed/strongly agreed • Wiki task helped understand how the skills could be applied – 92% agreed/strongly agreed • Enjoyed working on the wiki task – 83% agreed/strongly agreed
  • 13. Evaluation Most interesting/useful: Hearing what other people had to say and seeing their different approaches Communicating within a group to find information resources Finding useful information about the artist and working in a group Having the tools to research collaboratively as well as individuals
  • 14. Strengths of wiki task • Provided context and application • Provided focus for the session • Facilitated peer interaction and learning • Opportunity to provide formative feedback • Introduced students to wikis as a research tool
  • 15. Challenges of wiki task • Patchy attendance by some group members • Need to ensure only one group member edited wiki page at one time • Technically challenging to review other groups’ wiki pages • Some students did not understand importance of selecting and referencing (not just copying and pasting) • More in depth teaching needed for referencing
  • 16. References • BIGGS, J. and TANG, C. (2007) Teaching for quality learning at university: what the student does, 3rd ed.
