Presentation Description

This presentation will focus on the results of collaboration between the information literacy librarian at Washington College and the first-year experience program. The presentation will focus on how pre- and posttests were built in the college’s course management system. The presentation will also provide an overview of how built-in learning analytics were used to see how individual students did, question-by-question. Finally, future assessment measures involving the collecting of qualitative data will be discussed.
