“What is being assessed in libraries today? What tools and methods are being used? What should be assessed but is not? Why?” A national survey in Spring 2016 explored these pressing questions while investigating the current practice of assessment in libraries today. In this presentation, the researchers discuss the survey results and implications of the data.
The document discusses different types of research methods including quantitative, qualitative, and mixed methods research. Quantitative research uses objective measurements and statistical analysis, while qualitative research explores underlying reasons and motivations through methods like interviews. Mixed methods research incorporates both quantitative and qualitative data collection. The document also describes observational studies like case studies and longitudinal studies, as well as experimental research methods like randomized controlled trials that manipulate variables and use control groups.
Validity of Instruments, Appropriateness of Designs and Statistics in Article...iosrjce
The main purpose of the study is to appraise the validity of research instruments, the appropriateness
of the research designs and the statistics used for data analyses in articles published in education journals in
Nigeria. Currently, higher institutions in Nigeria tend to prefer articles published in foreign/international
journals. Some researchers in the country also question the validity of some of the articles published in local
journals. Appropriate research designs, valid instrument and appropriate use of statisticals tools are some of
the indices that make research results credible and dependable. To assess these important variables, three
questions were posed. Journal articles published in Nigeria education Journals for last five years were selected
through accidental sampling technique. Then purposive sampling technique was used to select 132 empirical
studies. Empirical studies were selected because they are the studies that lend themselves to use of designs, data
collection with instruments and statistical analysis of data. Appraisal guides for instrument, design and
statistics were used to assess the articles. The results showed that 67% of the articles were carried out with
appropriate research designs, and in 78% of the articles, appropriate statistics were applied in data analyses.
However, only 36% of the instruments used for the study would generate data that can lead to valid
interpretation of the results. Programmes that will enhance knowledge and stills of researchers to improve the
quality of research based publications are recommended. Institutions of higher learning can help their staff in
this direction

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 Skills Training for Health Equity Leadership Pipeline Collaborative
1. Information Skills Training for
Health Equity Leadership Pipeline Collaborative
.
The Collaborative
The Taubman Health Sciences Library (THL) at the University of Michigan has a long history of active engagement
with the School of Public Health. Informationists are assigned to each of the six departments of the school and also participate
in school and department programs and initiatives.
The Health Equity Leadership Pipeline Collaborative (LPC) is part of the University of Michigan School of Public
Health (SPH), the Department of Health Management and Policy (HMP) and Griffith Leadership Center. Its mission is to
provide innovative, relevant, and scholarly research on health professions and health education training methods to increase
the impact of healthcare leadership on addressing health equity issues on:
• Increasing the leadership diversity of the health care field,
• Community health care capacity building, and
• Designing effective educational components/competencies for health care organizations
Levels of Implementation and Learning Objectives
Abstract
Objective
Student research assistants often look for advanced information-seeking skills to prepare for research. Informationists at the
University of Michigan,Taubman Health Sciences Library (THL), partnered with its School of Public Health’s "Health Equity
Leadership Pipeline Collaborative" (The Collaborative) to create an information training program to prepare student
researchers for roles in health equity and eliminating health disparities within healthcare administration.
Methods
In partnership with the Collaborative,THL informationists used a survey approach to curricular design to inform the process
of information skills curricular development and implementation as part of the Collaborative’s overall evidence-based
curriculum. Based on the Collaborative’s mission of providing “innovative, relevant, and scholarly research on health
professions and health education training methods to increase the impact of healthcare leadership on addressing health
equity,”THL informationists began planning a sustainable information-seeking and management training series for recently
hired student research assistants.The informationists assessed student information skill levels and worked with the program
director to develop training levels and implementation model, and together created a sustainable, information-seeking and
management training structure. Informationists created the information skills training, consisting of live demonstrations,
discussion, and hands-on exploration.The program aims were to create a set of training practices that included: 1)
interdisciplinary resource awareness, 2) searching subject-focused databases and grey literature, and 3) use of citation
management tools.
Results
The multi-part, scaffolded instructional program for research students incorporates a health equity perspective, and the four
competencies were based on ACRL’s Information Literacy Competency Standards for Higher Education and Framework for
Information Literacy for Higher Education: Information Management and Ethical Use, Searching and Documentation,
Evaluating Information, and ScholarlyWriting and Publishing. For each component, there are three mastery levels with specific
learning objectives, which provide demonstrable skills for evaluation. It is designed with enough flexibility to allow students
to begin with any component if needed. The levels of implementation, each with specific learning objectives, provide a clear
pathway for instruction and assessment. Based on a preliminary assessment, students have an increased confidence in their
skills in four learning objectives.
Conclusion
The partnership betweenTHL andThe Collaborative has been a fruitful experience. In one semester, student information
literacy increased, and the competency scaffolding has led to better writing and publication.The project has since
seeded other research, funding, and publication opportunities betweenTHL and the Collaborative.
