Puzzle Pieces: Assessing Student Work using Rubrics & Citation Analysis for d...Alan Carbery
This document summarizes the findings of an assessment project that used rubrics and citation analysis to evaluate student annotated bibliographies. The assessment revealed several key findings about student research behaviors. Students chose a variety of source types but sometimes struggled with distinguishing primary and secondary sources. They also tended to select popular culture topics but omit academic sources for those topics. The assessment indicated students have a basic understanding of source authority but struggle more with writing annotations than finding sources. It provides recommendations to realign library instruction with threshold concepts and add a new lesson focused on primary sources.
This document provides examples of how QR codes can be used in education across various content areas and activities. It includes examples such as linking QR codes to videos about QR codes, using them for personalized learning by allowing students to choose their own path, tracking student access, providing station directions, linking to book trailers and library resources, homework assignments, scavenger hunts, and a comedic student play. Step-by-step directions are also provided for creating QR codes and customizing them.
This document discusses directions in information literacy teaching. It advocates using non-traditional teaching methods like problem-based learning and process-oriented guided inquiry learning to create an engaging learning environment. These methods expose students' assumptions about information behaviors and create a meaningful learning experience. The document also discusses assessing information literacy, the role of online tools, and how taking on a facilitator role as a teacher can enrich the learning experience.

Reaching our online students where they are.Alan Carbery
A talk delivered for the Vermont Library Association in October 2016. This paper presents the initiatives currently being undertaken by Champlain College library to reach online students and faculty.
This document discusses the joys and challenges of teaching. It notes that teaching can bring great joy when teachers and students discover new things together and push past obstacles, but can also be painful when classes feel lifeless, confusing, and out of the teacher's control. It encourages teachers to teach courageously and inquisitively with their whole hearts by growing as reflective practitioners and developing teaching philosophies to guide them.
The document describes the Word Walk strategy for teaching vocabulary to young children during shared storybook reading. The strategy involves introducing, practicing, and reviewing a targeted vocabulary word before, during, and after reading. Teachers first introduce a word with a picture or prop, define it, and have children repeat it. During reading, the teacher pauses when the word is encountered and provides another definition. After reading, the word is reinforced through repetition, revisiting its use in the story, and discussing other examples. The strategy provides structured guidance for implementing robust vocabulary instruction within shared storybook reading.

Media and information literacy: an inconvenient truthAlan Carbery
This document discusses four inconvenient truths about information literacy instruction. First, it is unclear how much of the instruction "sticks" with students and whether they are truly learning. Second, information literacy extends beyond the library and involves other parts of academia. Third, current models of library-centric instruction are not enough in the current information environment. Fourth, information literacy, media literacy, and data literacy are related but distinct concepts. The document calls for rethinking instructional approaches to better achieve intended goals of developing lifelong independent learners.
Connected efforts: combining information, digital, media & emerging literacie...Alan Carbery
This document discusses the role of libraries in developing various literacies, including information, digital, media, and technological literacies. It argues that libraries can play an important role in cultivating these literacies through curated learning opportunities and experiences. Developing these connected literacies is important for empowering people, achieving personal and social goals, and promoting inclusion and free access to information in today's digital world. The document examines some of the challenges around misinformation and the need for libraries to provide literacy development in a non-neutral, interdisciplinary space.
Opportunity Knocks: leveraging collaborative efforts for teaching and learnin...Alan Carbery
The document discusses opportunities for collaboration to strengthen information literacy instruction. It proposes embedding information literacy instruction at least seven times throughout students' undergraduate degrees through interdisciplinary collaboration. It advocates for librarians to collaborate inwards by sharing lesson plans, outwards by partnering with others across the university, and upwards and downwards to align with strategic plans and academic missions. The goal is to make information literacy a core competency by innovating and collaborating in new ways.
Academic Library Impact: an action-oriented research agendaAlan Carbery
This document summarizes research on measuring the impact of academic libraries. It identifies six key areas of focus for further research: communication, collaboration, mission alignment, teaching and learning, student success, and learning analytics.

This document discusses Champlain College's use of a rubric-based e-portfolio approach to assess student learning of information literacy. Students receive information literacy instruction seven times throughout their undergraduate degree. A developmental rubric is used to assess student work samples from first year and junior year courses. Assessment findings show students perform at or beyond expected stages of development. Comparisons of year-to-year results track instructional changes and student growth in information literacy skills from first year to junior year. The e-portfolio approach benefits faculty through better understanding student abilities, but not all students participate.
The NSSE monster: Scary creature or outreach opportunity?Alan Carbery
The document discusses the results of the National Survey of Student Engagement (NSSE) at Champlain College. It found that Champlain students reported completing assignments using information sources other than required readings less often than peers, but still not very often. Students also indicated that instructors somewhat emphasized questioning the quality of information sources. The document poses that these results indicate an opportunity to further engage faculty in having students think critically about information quality. It provides contact information for two library directors to continue the discussion.

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.

This document discusses an embedded information literacy program at Champlain College that provides instruction to all undergraduate students 7 times throughout their studies. It touches on using inquiry-based learning and blended instruction approaches as well as critical pedagogy. The document also notes challenges faced with changes to the core curriculum that resulted in increased teaching loads and potential loss of the embedded program.
Rubric & Citation Analysis Tool for Student AssessmentAlan Carbery
This document discusses two assessment tools used at Champlain College Library to evaluate student work and inform instructional design: an annotated bibliography rubric and a citation analysis worksheet. The rubric assesses bibliographies based on the presence of a thesis statement, source variety, citation quality, annotation completeness, and the overall impression of sources. The citation analysis worksheet is used to evaluate individual citations and analyze sources based on format, location, databases, author affiliation, primary/secondary nature, scholarly/popular appeal, currency, and CHOICE rating. These tools provide data to libraries on students' research skills and how to improve information literacy instruction.

The document discusses mashups and sampling in music. It begins with a student agreeing with DJs that mashups have a symbiotic relationship with original music similar to how photography benefits from and pays tribute to architecture. The student uses the analogy of a photographer taking a picture of a building to show another perspective without stealing from the architects and builders. Other students further agree with this analogy, noting how mashups can introduce people to new artists and genres, and how viewing music as only the work of a single artist is too narrow since all art builds on influences from the past.

When you set the required attribute to True in Python code, it makes the field required across all views where it's used. Conversely, when you set the required attribute in XML views, it makes the field required only in the context of that particular view.

A wound is a break in the integrity of the skin or tissues, which may be associated with disruption of the structure and function.
Healing is the body’s response to injury in an attempt to restore normal structure and functions.
Healing can occur in two ways: Regeneration and Repair
There are 4 phases of wound healing: hemostasis, inflammation, proliferation, and remodeling. This document also describes the mechanism of wound healing. Factors that affect healing include infection, uncontrolled diabetes, poor nutrition, age, anemia, the presence of foreign bodies, etc.
