Editor's Notes
- There is a new faculty orientation every fall, and a Canvas course is set up for all new faculty. The library has a module, and we provide information about services and resources. The library’s faculty handbook also provides information about how to use the library and our services.
- Canvas Commons is a way to share files, courses, and other course components to others in the Canvas Community. They can be shared within a school or with all of Canvas’s users. We have created a collection of lessons that professors can import into their courses to build their own library module to meet their needs. When a resource is updated, Commons will give a notification. The overall collection is called the uPick Library Module. A business-specific collection is called the Business Research Toolbox.
- This is an example of a Health Services Administartion (HSA) class that has imported a variety of lessons and files from Canvas Commons.
- For schools that don’t use Canvas, other learning management systems have similar functionalities. Blackboard has its Open Content repository (formerly called xPlor) and Desire2Learn has a Brightspace Learning Repository. Moodle has a local file system repository that can be created for an institution, but not Moodle-wide.
- Some faculty members invite librarians to add content to their courses. In this example, Diana Matthews was added to the CIS1254 Master Course to review the current lessons and provide supplemental materials.
- Online webinars are one way to reach online students. We use Adobe Connect and make recordings available for students who can’t attend.
- Our nursing program has a program orientation, and the library gets half of that time. This is also available through Adobe Connect.
- We create customized library lessons upon request for online classes. These lessons are general Canvas pages and are a mix of text, screenshots, and video tutorials. Some professors request a library quiz to ensure accountability. These quizzes are typically self-grading and allow students to retake it for a better grade.
- Our video tutorials, also linked on our webpage, are created using PowerPoint and Audacity (a free sound recorder) and exported as a video. We upload to Vimeo, since we can replace video files without needing to update links. All tutorials use open captions and we provide transcripts.
- All Bachelor’s level nursing courses have a prominent Library Resources module that is updated by our nursing librarian. She is also added to each course to provide help.
- This is an example of a discussion board that our nursing librarian creates for each class she is in. It’s not used heavily, but she usually gets a few questions each semester and it serves as a visible point of contact.
- One example from outside our college that we would love to emulate is Portland State University’s Library DIY. This allows students to “choose their own adventure,” defining their precise research need and getting narrow answer.
- During nursing webinars, our librarian shows how to access and search relevant databases and then gives specific example searches for students to practice with.
- Hot Potatoes is a free software that is no longer updated but allows you to easily create learning objects. This example is a drag and drop citation, where students place the elements in the correct order.
- We use Prezi to create more dynamic presentations and Socrative for review quizzes. While we haven’t used Kahoot, it’s similar to Socrative and we have heard good things about it.
- Scott Tarbox is mentioned as the point of contact in many Health Services Administration classes.
- They also link directly to the research guide for that program in the Canvas class.
- Diana Matthews was asked to add an announcement about her ability to help students in a speech class, along with a short video introducing herself and the research guide.
