The document discusses a presentation given by Betsaida M. Reyes and Bronwen K. Maxson on critically reenvisioning graduate research orientations for the 21st century. They draw on critical pedagogy theories and recognize students as knowledge creators to shift from traditional one-shot orientations. Through focus groups, they redesigned their workshops as a series to incorporate students' diverse backgrounds and experiences. Their goals are to incorporate critical theory into librarianship and help others see librarians as partners in education rather than gatekeepers.
Critical pedagogy: education in the practice of freedomAlan Carbery
Slides from a talk at the Vermont Library Association College & Special Libraries Conference, October 2015. Abstract: Our presentation focuses on the use of primary sources in library instruction to inspire students to think around issues of injustice and oppression. Following remarks on our chapter-in-progress for a book on Critical Library Instruction, the session will be devoted to introducing/discussing Critical Pedagogy and its influence on library instruction. Because Critical Pedagogy is dependent upon decentering the lecturer in favor of a participatory and community-driven style of learning, we hope this session can act as a forum for our colleagues to share ways in which they’ve incorporated facets of Critical Pedagogy into their instructional practice, ask questions about Critical Library Instruction, and offer any critiques they have of Critical Pedagogy/Critical Library Instruction. Delivered with Sean Leahy, Instruction & Learning Assessment Librarian, Champlain College.

Diverse Classroom Management Styles A Future Pilot Studyijtsrd
A great influx of international students has been arriving in the United States to study in American colleges and universities. As a result, classrooms have been marked by substantial ethnic diversity among both students and faculty members. Although learning styles directly affect the ability of students to learn, little is known about appropriate classroom management styles for a culturally diverse classroom environment. The purpose of this exploratory, pilot survey study is to investigate how students of different national origins experience selected classroom management behaviors in an undergraduate business program in a big metropolitan city. Current and former students will respond to questions about how they like group projects, detailed classroom discussions, and questions directed at them from the professor. The results will be presented in the form of descriptive statistics. This research will be limited by the small sample size and the nonrepresentative nature of the sample. A larger and more representative sample of college and university students would enable analysis by means of inferential statistics and generalizable conclusions regarding how students of different genders and diverse national origins respond to different classroom management styles. The findings of this study may be valuable in suggesting future research possibilities into classroom participation by a diverse student body, ultimately leading to a more globalist thought process benefiting students, educators, and institutions of higher education.

Starting young: How the inclusion of student scholarship in repositories bene...Andrea Schuler
Presented at Open Repositories 2018, Bozeman, MT. Abstract: Open access outreach at colleges and universities tends to focus on faculty. Student work captured in repositories is generally theses and dissertations, deposited by rote as a last step before graduation. This leaves a large student population and a large body of their work under focused-on and underserved. This presentation suggests that educating students about scholarly sharing practices and capturing student work beyond ETDs from the very beginning of their careers not only preserves valuable scholarship otherwise at risk of becoming inaccessible, but begins to build openness into research practices and grow a sustainable open ecosystem. Many students will go onto graduate school and enter academia, becoming the next generation of authors who are primed to advocate for and take advantage of opportunities to openly share their work. The presentation will discuss benefits of adding student work to institutional repositories; small-scale case studies of gathering and sharing student work beyond ETDs; lessons learned; and on-going challenges. After attending this session, participants will have a stronger understanding of some of the considerations of including student work in repositories and be able to apply the discussed case studies as inspiration for outreach, education, and collection-building at their own institution.

4. Decolonization
in a global
context
The original title for this presentation was --
Decolonizing the academy: (re)envisioning the
graduate research workshop for the 21st century.
“Most simply, when information literacy is seen to form a single way of
knowing, we limit our understandings about the nature of information
literacy by marginalizing other forms of knowledge that support literate
practice, such as the cultural and social practices that students bring
with them to a classroom.
...when this culturally specific model of information literacy is
positioned both as standard and as autonomously having a positive
effect on an individual, the purpose of education is presented as a
one-way or unilateral process of assimilation to Western values. They
are also particularly problematic given the emphasis within higher
education on internationalization and the ‘decolonisation of
education’... There is a further risk that ideas such as these position
… information literacy as an imperial project.”

5. Critical Pedagogy
Wolowski, R. J. (2011) CI Bankco currency

“According to Freire, the model characterizing normal pedagogy’s
function is the bank. It is targeted to reproduce power relations that
dominate current society and realize the hegemonic ideology in
school. He asserts that normal pedagogy accomplishes this project
while blocking possibilities for dialogue. In dialogue he sees equal,
open, and critical intersubjectivity between students and their world,
and between teachers and students and the space in which they
are situated, as an alternative to power relations in the school and
apparatuses and hierarchies that constitute it. In Freire's opinion, it
is of vital importance to transform these powers, hierarchies, and
procedures into counter-educational praxis, on that his critical
pedagogy is commented to constituting."
(Gur-Ze’ev, 1998)
6. From the
literature
● Increasing number of international
students in the US
● Freirean approach to information
literacy
● “Effect[ing] social change”
● Librarians as educators vs. service
providers
● Learning from students
● Multiple literacies

10. "My favorite definition of critical
information literacy is from Accardi,
Drabinski, and Kumbier’s 2010 book
Critical Library Instruction. They define
it as “a library instruction praxis that
promotes critical engagement with
information sources, considers
students collaborators in knowledge
production practices (and creators in
their own right), recognizes the
affective dimensions of research, and
(in some cases) has liberatory aims.”
(Downey in an interview, 2016)

11. Critical Librarianship
Downey (2016) mentions 3 approaches to
teaching:
● Dialogue-based approach
● Problem-posing
● Create a student-centered learning
environment
What else can librarians do?
● Critically evaluate what libraries and
librarians do
● Embrace students’ backgrounds and
experiences while asking them to consider
new ideas
● Move away from checklist-based notions of
what constitutes “Information literacy”
● Realize the library is not a neutral space for
everyone
