The document describes a scalable approach developed by NCSU Libraries called "Course Views" to provide library resources customized for courses. Course Views generates a web page for every course using the course identification number that distills relevant library tools and resources. Librarians can further customize the content for specific courses. The system was integrated into the university's learning management systems and library website to increase access. Feedback found it needed to provide more information simply.

The European Data Science Academy: Bridging the Data Science Skills Gap

Alexander Mikroyannidis

As a global society, we are producing data at an incredible rate, fuelled by the increasing ubiquity of the Web, and stoked by social media, sensors, and mobile devices. However, as the amount of produced data continues to increase, so does the demand for practitioners who have the necessary skills to manage and manipulate this data. The European Data Science Academy (EDSA) is looking to bridge the data science skills gap by developing multimodal open courseware tailored to the real needs of data practitioners. The EDSA courseware is implemented as a combination of living learning materials and activities (eBook, online courses, webinars, face-to-face training), produced via a rigorous process and validated by the data science community through continuous feedback.

IL Group (CILIP Information Literacy Group)

ASK is a web-based tool developed by Staffordshire University to help first-year undergraduates with their first assignments. It provides 10 steps to guide students through the research and writing process, from recognizing their information need to reviewing their work. The tool was awarded the 2007 CILIP UC&R Innovation Award. Student and faculty feedback showed ASK is useful for time management, learning research skills, and reassurance. Future developments could include more interactivity and personalization through technologies like email alerts, SMS, and integration within the student portal.

E learning

Sohag Babu

E-learning involves using internet technologies to deliver educational content and solutions to enhance knowledge. It allows learning to take place through interactive digital content that can be accessed online from anywhere at any time. While traditional classroom learning will still have a role, e-learning allows for a blended approach with less emphasis on in-person teaching and more emphasis and flexibility for online, on-demand learning. E-learning provides benefits like unlimited and personalized learning paths, access to multimedia and digital libraries, and cost-effective solutions for growing student populations and lack of educational facilities and funding.

IL Group (CILIP Information Literacy Group)

This document discusses plans to enhance the Assignment Survival Kit (ASK), a web-based tool that supports first-year undergraduates at Staffordshire University with their first assignments. The developers seek to increase ASK's appeal and engagement by incorporating emerging technologies like podcasts and linking to content in the university's digital repository. They outline ideas like creating audio/video tutorials and allowing students to customize the tool's content. The goals are to accommodate different learning styles and involve academic faculties. Potential challenges mentioned include the time and funding required as well as ensuring technologies chosen do not become outdated or overcomplicate the tool.

sherif user group

The document discusses accessibility of online content at The Open University. It notes that 17.1% of the university's students have a disability. Common disabilities impacting online learning include mental health issues, fatigue/pain, learning difficulties, mobility issues, and sight or hearing impairments. The university works to make its online module content, library resources, and databases accessible through clear formatting, screen reader compatibility, captions, and flexibility. However, some content like PDFs, images, videos and tables can present problems. The university works with publishers and provides conversion services to improve accessibility when possible. The challenges of ensuring content is accessible before purchase are also discussed.

IL Group (CILIP Information Literacy Group)

The document discusses a project by Leeds City College library staff to create an e-learning resource on using various aspects of the library. The project aimed to (1) create a reusable Moodle resource accessible campus-wide, (2) involve staff from multiple campuses in the creation process to give them a sense of ownership, and (3) break down barriers between roles through team building. The staff created interactive lessons using Adobe Captivate that could be integrated into the college's virtual learning environment and used internally or externally. Everyone on the team contributed ideas and skills to the project, such as librarians writing puzzles and scripts, and an editing expert directing video clips.
