CILA Faculty Lunch Conversation: "Mapping Information Literacy Skills onto Department Curricula"
TUESDAY, October 5 11:45-1:15 in Buntrock 142
Mary Walczak, Chemistry and 2004-05 CILA Associate, with Beth Christensen, Library; Alice Hanson, Music; Karil Kucera, Art and Art History; and Kris MacPherson, Library
We all want our graduating majors to be well versed in sources and structure of information relevant to their field and adept at using technology to find and evaluate resources. How do we intentionally integrate these skills into our majors? At this session, we will describe how each of our departments (chemistry, music and Asian studies) identified the information literacy skills we wanted our graduates to possess and the ways in which we taught these skills as students progressed through our programs.
