Presentation Description
Teaching critical thinking skills that go beyond academia cannot be accomplished by instructors or librarians alone. Both must collaborate to create an environment where information literacy is taught, understood and applied. A synthesis of learning prepares students to move from academic to career settings, applying information literacy in their new professional roles through an evidence-based design knowledge protocol and providing them a distinctive edge over other new graduates.
