The document discusses reasons why some children become bullies. It states that research has found several factors that may contribute to bullying: 1) A combination of size and aggressive personality, with bigger, more aggressive children more likely to bully smaller, quieter peers; 2) Exposure to violent TV programs, which by age 10 is thousands of acts of violence; and 3) Exposure to real violence, with studies finding victims often become bullies themselves from learned behavior.
A thesis statement is a sentence located in the introductory paragraph that states the main idea and position on a topic. It organizes the paper and is not the same as the title. To write a thesis statement, one must determine their topic of interest, conduct preliminary research to see if there is enough information to form an argument, choose a side on what they believe about the topic, and write a sentence that includes the main idea and their belief on the subject. A good thesis statement is clear, arguable, requires research to prove, contains a single main idea, and is about something important in the past.
This document introduces the CRAAP test for evaluating information sources. The CRAAP test consists of 5 criteria - Currency, Relevance, Authority, Accuracy, and Purpose. Each criterion is explained in 1-2 sentences. Currency refers to how up-to-date the information is. Relevance means how effectively the source communicates information to its intended audience. Authority evaluates the author's credentials and expertise. Accuracy examines the reliability and verifiability of the content. Purpose determines why the source was created and any potential biases. The document provides examples and guidelines for applying each aspect of the CRAAP test.

This document evaluates a website about Martin Luther King Jr. using the CRAAP test. It finds that the website lacks currency as it has not been updated, has questionable relevance as the information seems elementary and biased, has no credible authority as there is no information about the publisher and biased authors, has inaccurate accuracy as the authors and sources cannot be verified, and has a clear purpose of propaganda to portray Martin Luther King Jr. in a negative light through biased opinions.

Digital Labor and Metaliteracy: Students as Critical Participants in Profit-D...lmwallis
This document discusses digital labor and how people's online activities can be considered work. It explores how companies collect and analyze user data from social media, online purchases, and other digital interactions to target ads and commodify information. While some see this as a fair exchange for using free services, others argue it exploits users and can influence them without their full awareness or consent. The document suggests ways to help students critically examine their online presence and value both the data and content they generate intentionally or unintentionally through normal online activities.
This document discusses the "Goldilocks Theory" for developing research questions. It identifies three types of research questions: those that are too little, too big, or just right. Questions that are too little are narrow and can be answered quickly, while those that are too big have too broad a scope. Well-developed research questions that are "just right" leave room for discovery and debate while focusing the research scope. The document provides examples to illustrate each type and offers strategies for refining questions to find the "just right" balance.

This document outlines Lauren Wallis' presentation on using Instagram for library instruction. She describes how she developed an Instagram library tour for freshman English students to make the experience fun, social, and student-guided. Wallis discusses the concepts of library anxiety, active learning, critical pedagogy, and metaliteracy that informed the project. She provides examples of student posts that addressed the learning outcomes and assessments that showed what students learned and still had questions about.
Lauren Wallis developed an Instagram library tour program for English 101 classes at the University of Montevallo to make library instruction more engaging for students. Small groups of students used the library's iPads to take pictures around the library, add captions and hashtags, and post to Instagram. This active learning approach helped reduce library anxiety while teaching students about library resources and controlled vocabulary. The program was successful in reaching most freshmen and achieved its student learning outcomes. Wallis hopes to expand the program to other classes and increase faculty outreach.
Academic libraries aim to be student-centered by focusing on four key areas: defining the needs and expectations of students, locating resources that meet those needs, evaluating resources to ensure quality and relevance, and teaching students how to effectively use the resources.

When searching for an article on WorldCat, the results may indicate if the journal is available in print in the library's bound periodicals, unbound periodicals, microfiche, or microfilm collections. The document provides instructions on how to locate these physical journal holdings, such as taking the elevator upstairs to access bound periodicals organized alphabetically, or checking the unbound periodicals section on the main floor for newer issues.
This document describes an activity called "Keyword Hot Potato" that is used to teach students how to generate keywords and search library databases. The activity involves students in small groups brainstorming keywords for topics on sheets of paper that are passed around. They then construct different search term combinations to hypothesize what information those terms may retrieve in a database search. By trying out the student-generated terms, the instructor can discuss effective search techniques and strategies with the class. The goal is for students to practice developing search terms and strategizing for database research.

The document describes a library trivia game designed to teach English 101 students research skills for their synthesis essay assignment. The game has two parts: in Part 1, student teams rotate through five stations using different library resources to find background information; in Part 2, the teams compete in a trivia game answering questions about what they learned. The librarian found that most students grasped basic skills like using encyclopedias and the catalog, but some with low confidence struggled. For next time, introducing skills through video before class and adding game elements could improve student engagement and learning.
Instagram is being used in an English 101 class to encourage student engagement with course material. Students are assigned to find and share Instagram posts related to topics being discussed in class and then analyze and discuss those posts. This allows students to interact with course concepts outside of class through a popular social media platform in a way that is fun and relevant to their lives.
The document discusses the benefits of exercise for mental health. Regular physical activity can help reduce anxiety and depression and improve mood and cognitive function. Exercise causes chemical changes in the brain that may help protect against mental illness and improve symptoms.
The document describes three active learning activities using painter's tape pedagogy that were conducted in three different class sessions. The activities aimed to teach information literacy concepts and skills. For a children's literature class, students worked in groups to build concept maps on assigned topics. For a composition class, students solved citation puzzles in groups. For a public speaking class, students evaluated the trustworthiness of information sources and considered the purpose and audience of different resources. All activities engaged students in collaborative small group work and discussion.
