Collaborative Information Literacy Assessments: Strategies for Evaluating Teaching and Learning (Information Literacy Sourcebooks) - Softcover

Inhaltsangabe

Mackey (Center for Distance Learning, Empire State College, SUNY, Saratoga Springs) and Jacobson (user education, U. at Albany, SUNY) bring together eight chapters that explain how faculty and librarians can collaborate to develop strategies for assessing information literacy in higher education in the areas of business, social science, education, and the humanities. Eight faculty-librarian teams from the US, UK, and New Zealand describe qualitative and/or quantitative assessment approaches to information literacy in business and finance, writing courses, and in the core curriculum, as well as an integrated library component in political science, collaborative curriculum interventions for psychology and nursing courses, and online assessment. They discuss courses that incorporated these approaches, challenges, suggestions for overcoming institutional barriers, and what they learned. Section introductions recommend applications of the assessments in different arenas. Annotation ©2010 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
