Short Description

Online tutorials are an increasingly common method for delivering information literacy instruction; however, maintaining online tutorial programs can be quite time-intensive. One approach for creating a sustainable tutorial program is to keep tutorials short, use no-frills screen cast software, and include library staff and student workers in recording the tutorials. In this session, we will demonstrate how to make a tutorial quickly using Jing Professional, how we have included staff and student workers in the process, and ways we have begun to encourage faculty to use the tutorials to help support information literacy skills in their own face-to-face and online instruction.
