Methods Behind the (One Shot) Madness: Enhancing Instruction Through Mapping,...char booth
Presentation given by Char Booth (Instruction Services Coordinator & E-Learning Librarian), Natalie Tagge (Instruction Librarian), and Sean Stone (Science Librarian) of the Claremont Colleges Library at the SCILWorks 2012 Conference:
http://www.carl-acrl.org/ig/scil/scilworks/2012/index.html
Session Description: In-class techniques and e-learning tips can undeniably improve one-shot sessions, but collaborative management and outcomes-driven assessment of an overall instruction program is key to increasing instructor effectiveness and student learning in even the briefest of interactions. This presentation explores three pilot initiatives designed to build a structured and strategic framework behind "traditional" undergraduate instruction at the Claremont Colleges Library: instructor portfolios, curriculum mapping, and information literacy rubrics. Instructor portfolios collect teaching materials, student work, and coordinated evaluations in an integrative attempt to holistically assess one-shot library instruction from the perspective of faculty, students and librarians. Curriculum and knowledge mapping is a way of visualizing the path a learner takes through a discipline, department, or degree, as well as an engaging planning and brainstorming tool. Rubrics help define specific student outcomes as well as provide a quantifiable tool for assessment of information literacy skills. When applied in tandem, these approaches can be used to gather powerful insight into the learner experience and create the impetus for more collaborative, creative, and lasting library instruction.
Rubric developed by Sean Stone and Char Booth fo the Claremont College Library to support curriculum mapping and instructional integration into the core course sequence of the Environmental Analysis Program. Curriculum map can be accessed at tinyurl.com/claremontlib-eamap

Upstairs-downstairs: Working with a campus assessment coordinator and other a...Margot
Guess what -- you don't need to do learning assessment on a 45-minute one-shot presentation. Instruction librarians at Golden Gate University learned this and much more when an Assessment Coordinator arrived to help prepare our school for WASC. Oakleaf & Hinchliffe (2008) identify lack of coordination as one of the barriers librarians face in conducting assessment, and we found that having a smart, committed, and trustworthy coordinator made all the difference to our research project. We leveraged the Assessment Coordinator's expertise to stay focused on a project that produced valid and useful results from an in-depth learning assessment to measure student learning in an English Language Learners program. Our presentation focuses on the people connections that made this assessment work: between librarian collaborators, with students and instructors in the ELL program, and all the way upstairs to our University-wide assessment coordinator. We'll talk about how we designed our assessment and - phew - let go of post-instruction evaluation forms. Participants will get a fresh look at how information literacy assessment can benefit from upstairs-downstairs collaboration (floor plan not included)!

The Roman Empire A Historical Colossus.pdfkaushalkr1407
The Roman Empire, a vast and enduring power, stands as one of history's most remarkable civilizations, leaving an indelible imprint on the world. It emerged from the Roman Republic, transitioning into an imperial powerhouse under the leadership of Augustus Caesar in 27 BCE. This transformation marked the beginning of an era defined by unprecedented territorial expansion, architectural marvels, and profound cultural influence.
The empire's roots lie in the city of Rome, founded, according to legend, by Romulus in 753 BCE. Over centuries, Rome evolved from a small settlement to a formidable republic, characterized by a complex political system with elected officials and checks on power. However, internal strife, class conflicts, and military ambitions paved the way for the end of the Republic. Julius Caesar’s dictatorship and subsequent assassination in 44 BCE created a power vacuum, leading to a civil war. Octavian, later Augustus, emerged victorious, heralding the Roman Empire’s birth.
Under Augustus, the empire experienced the Pax Romana, a 200-year period of relative peace and stability. Augustus reformed the military, established efficient administrative systems, and initiated grand construction projects. The empire's borders expanded, encompassing territories from Britain to Egypt and from Spain to the Euphrates. Roman legions, renowned for their discipline and engineering prowess, secured and maintained these vast territories, building roads, fortifications, and cities that facilitated control and integration.
The Roman Empire’s society was hierarchical, with a rigid class system. At the top were the patricians, wealthy elites who held significant political power. Below them were the plebeians, free citizens with limited political influence, and the vast numbers of slaves who formed the backbone of the economy. The family unit was central, governed by the paterfamilias, the male head who held absolute authority.
Culturally, the Romans were eclectic, absorbing and adapting elements from the civilizations they encountered, particularly the Greeks. Roman art, literature, and philosophy reflected this synthesis, creating a rich cultural tapestry. Latin, the Roman language, became the lingua franca of the Western world, influencing numerous modern languages.
Roman architecture and engineering achievements were monumental. They perfected the arch, vault, and dome, constructing enduring structures like the Colosseum, Pantheon, and aqueducts. These engineering marvels not only showcased Roman ingenuity but also served practical purposes, from public entertainment to water supply.

A Strategic Approach: GenAI in EducationPeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.

Information literacy & PBL : how students interact with information in a PBL setting. Author: Lorna Dodd
1. PBL & Information Literacy:
How students interact with
information in a PBL
setting
Lorna Dodd
Liaison Librarian
University College Dublin,
Belfield, Dublin 4,
Ireland
Lorna.dodd@ucd.ie
2. Background
• Only Veterinary Medicine programme in Ireland
• Review in mid 1990s resulted in introduction
PBL in the 2 pre-clinical years
• Students attend traditional lectures & lab
sessions as well as PBL module
3. What is Information
Literacy?
“recognize when information is needed
and have the ability to locate, evaluate,
and use effectively the needed
information.” (Association of College
Research Libraries, 2000)
4. Why is Information Literacy
important in PBL?
• Self-directed learning
• Development of life-long transferable
skills
• Critical and reflective thinking
5. Identify
information need
Use the Identify the
information in an most appropriate
INFORMATION source
ethical way LITERACY
Evaluate the
reliability, Effectively
relevance, retrieve relevant
currency & information
appropriateness
of the
information
6. Rationale
• No reading lists for PBL module
• How are students finding information?
• Does this affect the way they use the library?
• Most of the literature comments on how PBL impacts the
library
• How does PBL impact students behaviours?
7. Methodology
• Data was collected regarding both PBL and non-
PBL experiences
• Data was collected from all student
participating in PBL using a questionnaire
Quantitative data
Open ended qualitative questions
• Data collected from 5 academic staff – PBL
tutors
Semi-structured interviews
8. The Library
• 95% of students consider the library to be important in PBL
“While other resources e.g. Internet are useful, information gathered
from the library is more reliable and often more relevant”
• Those who did not think the library was important in PBL also
experienced difficulties with PBL
• Half of students spent longer in the library for PBL because of the
way PBL affects how they find and use information
“Requires more research”
“Learning involved is more intensive”
“Information is needed from a variety of sources”
• Staff feel:
– Students have a much greater need of the library in PBL
– PBL encourages students to use the library much earlier
“PBL forces them to look into sections and shelves they wouldn’t have
otherwise done”
9. Information Literacy Skills
• 40% of students experienced difficulty finding information for
PBL
• Most students consider information seeking skills very important
or extremely important in PBL because:
“You need to be able to find information…quickly for the next session”
“As a qualified vet you have to do your own PBL”
“[PBL] enables individuals to develop ability carry out research
independently”
It’s pretty much the purpose of PBL to work things our for yourself”
• Those who value information skills were able to search for
information more easily
• Academic staff expect students to
“Find their own resources”
“Learn what type of resources are available”
10. Choosing Resources
Non-PBL work PBL work
• Use one or two resources • Did not prefer one single
as preferred resource but used a variety
of resources
• Select their own material
• Select their own resources
for PBL work did so
for non-PBL work did so
because of external
because of internal
factors – PBL
factors
“PBL is based on your own
“”[I] don’t follow
initiative”
lectures”
11. Main findings
All those who spent more time
Students who feel the library in the library for PBL
is important in PBL
display higher levels of considered information literacy
information literacy important in PBL
Students who
selected their own material:
Considered information literacy skills
more important & displayed

information literacy skills
12. Identify an Convert Learning Identify the

13. The Coughing Horse
• Anatomy of the lung
Factual Information –
Textbooks
• Allergens and treatment
Current Research – Journal
Articles or Websites
• Is the information reliable?
• Is the information relevant to
problem?
Location
Availability of treatment
14.
15. Main Findings
Start of PBL: As a result of PBL:
Information literacy Librarian is PBL tutor
delivered during Knows problems & therefore required
orientation resources
Talks to students about resources
they use
Librarian in
Close collaborative relationship with
support/admin role
faculty
Information literacy delivered after
first problem – in context
16. Main Findings
• Facilitator/Tutor plays important role
Results showed that facilitators differed
Some recommended material and directed
students in finding information
These students selected material
themselves less
Displayed lower levels of information
literacy – never verified information by
checking another source
17. Conclusion
• Information Literacy should be consciously developed
Facilitators can -
encourage students to think about information they need
challenge students to critically evaluate the information
they find and the source
• Information Literacy can be:
Included as a learning outcome
An assessment criteria
• Involve librarians in curriculum development:
Ensure there are sufficient resources
Help students develop necessary skills
18. “Know where to find information and how
to use it. That’s the secret of success.”
Albert Einstein
Running or planning a
PBL course?
Don’t forget your
friendly librarian!!!

Editor's Notes
Pre-clinical years are not entirely PBL based Comparisons drawn between PBL & non-PBL activities
Lots of definitions. Think how much the world we live in has changed and how much the world of information has changed – the importance of being able to identify quality information and use it effectively and ethically
When we send students out on their own, they come back with information from unreliable sources Hear a lot about the importance of self directed learning within PBL, information literacy and self-directed learning go hand-in-hand. Silen argues they are both inter-linked process. Development of life-long transferable skills – one of the main benefits of PBL – information literacy is one of these skills Important to be critical and reflective about how we find and use information PBL gives students the skill to find the answer to something they don’t know. To do this they must be able to search for information properly
