Short Description

A discussion on how the JCSU Information Literacy & Learning (JILL) team is trying to break away from the standard “cookie cutter” one-shot classes in favor of more personalized, customized IL classes. Use of technology in the classroom will be discussed (for example, hands-on tutorials within a “smart classroom” setting, clickers, etc.) as well as the need for some old fashioned elbow grease from both the librarians and the professors.
