Project tags:

Project poster

The Baylor University Libraries need to provide relevant, meaningful library instruction sessions for 90 course sections of ENGL 1304: Thinking, Writing, & Research, a first year English course required by most of Baylor’s undergraduate programs, without overloading any single librarian and creating continuity between instructing librarians. In this project, I explore the content/practices currently used in ENGL 1304 library instruction sessions and the needs/expectations of their graduate level student instructors, who teach 60% of the sections. The gathered information is used to create a set of new standardized learning outcomes that form the foundation of an instruction request form.
