The document summarizes a presentation by Meredith Farkas on moving beyond one-shot library instruction sessions. It discusses limitations of the one-shot model and alternatives like flipped instruction, workshops, and embedding instruction into courses. Farkas emphasizes building relationships with faculty, participating in curriculum development, and creating learning objects like tutorials. She provides examples from her work at Portland Community College developing information literacy outcomes and collaborating with developmental education faculty. The presentation also covers reflective practice, communities of practice among librarians, and implications of the Framework for Information Literacy.
Presentation given at the 2015 Florida Library Association 2015 annual meeting on teaching with the new Information Literacy Framework for Higher Education.
In the professional literature, the term consortia cover a great range of cooperation situation and expressions according to the different contexts and period they were formed and developed. It has long been a precept of librarianship; however libraries have not used it widely until about the 1980s. The prime reason of establishing a library consortium is to share physical resources between member organizations. Through consortia, libraries are coordinating their purchasing to offer the best quality and quantity of resources to their patrons at a lower cost and also to make them available on users’ desktops. “Consortium purchasing is assisting libraries to deal with the increasing pressure of diminishing budgets, increasing user demand, and rising journal cost”

We all have good and bad thoughts from time to time and situation to situation. We are bombarded daily with spiraling thoughts(both negative and positive) creating all-consuming feel , making us difficult to manage with associated suffering. Good thoughts are like our Mob Signal (Positive thought) amidst noise(negative thought) in the atmosphere. Negative thoughts like noise outweigh positive thoughts. These thoughts often create unwanted confusion, trouble, stress and frustration in our mind as well as chaos in our physical world. Negative thoughts are also known as “distorted thinking”.

This is a presentation by Dada Robert in a Your Skill Boost masterclass organised by the Excellence Foundation for South Sudan (EFSS) on Saturday, the 25th and Sunday, the 26th of May 2024.
He discussed the concept of quality improvement, emphasizing its applicability to various aspects of life, including personal, project, and program improvements. He defined quality as doing the right thing at the right time in the right way to achieve the best possible results and discussed the concept of the "gap" between what we know and what we do, and how this gap represents the areas we need to improve. He explained the scientific approach to quality improvement, which involves systematic performance analysis, testing and learning, and implementing change ideas. He also highlighted the importance of client focus and a team approach to quality improvement.
Overview on Edible Vaccine: Pros & Cons with Mechanism
The Mindful Instruction Librarian and the "One-Shot"
1. The Mindful Instruction
Librarian and the “One-Shot”
Meredith Farkas
Portland Community College
Association of Christian Librarians Conference | June 13, 2016
2. Hi! I’m Meredith
Faculty Librarian at Portland Community College and
part-time faculty at San Jose State University’s iSchool
Previously
Head of Instructional Services, Portland State
University
Head of Instructional Initiatives, Norwich University
(VT)
Distance Learning Librarian, Norwich University (VT)
3. What we’re going to talk about
Limitations of one-shot instruction
Extending the one-shot and infusing information literacy
into the curriculum
Meaningful assessment
Reflective practice and peer learning for instructional
improvement
The Framework for Information Literacy and its impact on
our practice
11. Alternatives to the one-shot
Flipped instruction
Workshops
Sequenced, scaffolded library instruction across a course or a
series of courses
Disciplinary faculty also teach information literacy
Being embedded in a class
Co-teaching
For-credit information literacy courses
12. What does your instruction program look
like and what would you like it to look like?
Embedded in the curriculum or dependent on
individual instructors?
Intentional or “by request”?
Mostly one-shots? For-credit? Embedded? Scaffolded?
What does your instruction program’s assessment
work look like?
13. The keys to meaningful
embedment of information literacy
Build strong relationships with faculty and
departments
Get on committees, join faculty discussion
groups/communities of practice/etc.
Get involved in curriculum development/
design and review
Don’t just focus on library goals
14. An example at PCC: Developmental
Education and Composition/Lit
Most of our students go through the Reading/Writing
course sequence (RD 115, WR 121, WR 122)
Library activities
Participating in department meetings
Participating on Dev. Ed. redesign committees
Participating in RD/WR community of practice
Speaking at teaching and learning symposia
15. The results of that work
Lots of great collaborations with faculty and opportunities to try
new methods of instruction
Close embedment of information literacy in Reading 115 classes.
Working with disciplinary faculty to develop information
literacy video tutorials (more on that later)
Course outcomes for new Integrated Reading/Writing 115 class
include information literacy
We are always invited into conversations about curriculum and
pedagogy now
16. My experience with flipped
instruction: Web-based pre-
assignments that teach and assess
17. The specifics
Can be created in Google Forms or Qualtrics
(even Survey Monkey would work)
Text and video that teach skills; activities that
allow students to practice those skills
Students do authentic research on their own
research topic
18.
19.
20.
21.
22.
23.
24.
25. The secret sauce
Pre-assignment is required (for a grade)
Instruction session is developed based on the
results of the worksheet
26. The results
My understanding is increased
My instruction is more tailored
I can cover more ground / less DB demoing
Students are more engaged
Students directly benefit from the assessment
29. Tutorials
Integrate into classes via faculty outreach
Have students watch in-class at logical points
in their learning
Have students watch as homework with an
activity that has them practice those skills
Have students watch before library session
(perhaps with a library pre-assignment)
30. At PCC
Grant to build video tutorials to support
Reading, Writing, and ESOL classes at the 100
and pre-100 levels
Working collaboratively with faculty to
develop learning outcomes, get feedback on
storyboards, etc.
Meant to supplement library instruction
32. At Portland State university in the
Freshman Inquiry (FRINQ) program
Developed learning objects and activities that address most
important outcomes for Freshman Inquiry
Created LibGuides toolkit to support faculty and peer-mentors
in teaching information literacy beyond our one-or-two-shot
Train-the-trainer
Participated in orientations for peer mentors and faculty in-
service
Consulted with faculty and peer-mentors to create custom
lesson plans
33.
34.
35.
36.
37.
38. Step 2 of PCC tutorial grant project
Build a toolkit to package tutorials with
activities, lesson plans, etc. for faculty
Work on outreach and communication for
faculty
42. Advanced Design Process
Led by Center for Online Learning
instructional designers
For programs and departments, not individuals
Focused on backwards design
Library gets four hours
2 hrs. using library resources in classes
2 hrs. research assignment design
43.
44. What skills do your students need to have
to successfully complete your current
assignment?
Which of those do you explicitly teach?
45.
46. After the Advanced Design
Workshops
Quarterly library workshops on assignment
design for faculty
Hampered by low attendance
Discussions with GenEd Writing Coordinator
to create a FRINQ Model Research/Writing
Assignment Repository
47. Discussion
Where do you see opportunities at
your institution for doing some of this
work and going beyond the one-shot?
What would it take to make it happen?
49. Assessment fallacies
Assessment must objectively measure student
information literacy skills (iSkills, etc.)
Assessment is a measure of how well we did as
instructors
We can isolate the librarian’s/library's contribution
to student information literacy
Assessment must happen during the one-shot to be
useful
50. Types of assessment
Self-assessment
Satisfaction survey
Reflection
Tests / quizzes
Analyzing student work (papers, portfolios, bibliographies, etc.)
Classroom assessment techniques / performance assessment
Action research
51. Assessment in the one-shot
Formative assessments / pre-assignments
Self-assessment
Satisfaction survey
Reflection
One-minute papers
Performance assessments
52. Assessment beyond the one-shot
Self-assessment throughout the course
Reflection at the end of the term
Assessing student work
Action research
53. Building a culture of instructional
assessment
Start small, where the light is good; build short-term wins
Start from a place of curiosity
Don’t make it about individual results or judgment
People need time to learn about assessment, experiment
with assessment, analyze results, and learn from
assessment
Learn together, share results
56. Take the time to reflect!
What went well?
What didn’t?
What made you feel uncomfortable?
What made you feel great?
What would you like to do differently next time?
What do you want to remember for the next time you
work with that instructor?
58. Ways to learn together
Instructional observation
Reflective Peer Coaching
Community of Practice
Which is best and how these are structured
depend on your setting/culture.
60. Reflective Peer Coaching
“Examines intentions prior to teaching and reflections afterwards.”
- Dale Vidmar
Pairs meet once before a session to discuss goals
Pairs meet after the session to debrief
Focused on reflection and questioning, not suggesting or advising
Vidmar’s model includes an observer who makes sure that the pair
is focused on questioning, not suggesting or advising and makes
note of interesting comments
Vidmar, Dale J. “Reflective peer coaching: Crafting collaborative self-assessment in teaching.” Research Strategies 20.3
(2005): 135-148.
61. Community of Practice
“We need others to complement and develop our own expertise.”
- Etienne Wenger
Focused on learning, not work
Purposes
Workshop instructional ideas/problems/sessions
Journal club
Discuss information literacy issues
Etc.
63. -Information Literacy Competency Standards for
Higher Education
“Information literacy is a set of
abilities requiring individuals to
‘recognize when information is
needed and have the ability to locate,
evaluate, and use effectively the
needed information.’”
64. The InfoLit Competency Standards
Defined what an information literate student looked like
through outcomes — things they could do
Examples:
“Explores general information sources to increase familiarity with the
topic”
“Identifies keywords, synonyms and related terms for the information
needed”
“Recognizes prejudice, deception, or manipulation”
“Selects an appropriate documentation style and uses it consistently to
cite sources”
65. Is information literacy just a set of mechanical
skills that students can quickly learn?
Does it include dispositions, affect, and habits
of mind?
What about curiosity? Help-seeking? Persistence?
66.
67.
68.
69.
70. -Learning the Ropes: How Freshmen Conduct Course
Research Once They Enter College
“It was daunting to conduct online
searches for academic literature.
Nearly three-fourths of the sample
(74%) said they struggled with
selecting keywords and formulating
efficient search queries.”
71. Framework for Information
Literacy for Higher Education
“ Two added elements illustrate important
learning goals related to those concepts:
knowledge practices, which are demonstrations
of ways in which learners can increase their
understanding of these information literacy
concepts, and dispositions, which describe
ways in which to address the affective,
attitudinal, or valuing dimension of learning. ”
72. Examples of “dispositions” from
the Framework
“develop and maintain an open mind when encountering varied and
sometimes conflicting perspectives”
“value intellectual curiosity in developing questions and learning new
investigative methods”
“value persistence, adaptability, and flexibility and recognize that
ambiguity can benefit the research process”
“seek appropriate help when needed”
“exhibit mental flexibility and creativity”
“understand that first attempts at searching do not always produce
adequate results”
73. The Framework is structured
around “Threshold Concepts”
“Core ideas and processes that define the ways of thinking and practicing for
a discipline, but are so ingrained that they often go unspoken or
unrecognized by practitioners.”
Characteristics
Transformative
Troublesome
Irreversible
Integrative
Bounded
Townsend, L., Brunetti, K., & Hofer, A. R. (2011). Threshold concepts and information literacy. portal: Libraries and the Academy, 11(3), 853-869.
74. Framework for Information
Literacy for Higher Education
Defines six threshold concepts central to information literacy
Authority Is Constructed and Contextual
Information Creation as a Process
Information Has Value
Research as Inquiry
Scholarship as Conversation
Searching as Strategic Exploration
75. The Framework is flexible
“Neither the knowledge practices nor the
dispositions that support each concept are intended
to prescribe what local institutions should do in
using the Framework; each library and its partners
on campus will need to deploy these frames to best
fit their own situation, including designing learning
outcomes. For the same reason, these lists should not
be considered exhaustive.”
76. This is a big shift for some,
not so big for others
77. We can’t do this alone and the
Framework sees information literacy
instruction as a partnership
78. How do we know they are information
literate? Student reflection is critical
81. Choose one of the concepts from
the Framework
Authority Is Constructed and Contextual
Information Creation as a Process
Information Has Value
Research as Inquiry
Scholarship as Conversation
Searching as Strategic Exploration
82. After a close reading, select
at least one phrase that
speaks to you.
