Presentation Description

This workshop will guide participants through the process of developing or re-developing information literacy credit courses. Broadly conceived, an information literacy credit course could be a composition course, an introduction to research course, a critical thinking course, or any discipline-specific course whose focus requires students to develop and exercise their information literacy skills. At the conclusion of the workshop, participants should have a solid understanding of the process of developing information literacy credit courses, a start on a proposal to create a new credit course or to revamp an existing one, and perhaps a fellow participant or two with whom they may continue to collaborate.
