Presentation Description

As part of an undergraduate course, students provided screen capture videos that narrated their way through searching for and evaluating information on specific course topics. These videos were analyzed and coded and, together with results from questionnaires, provide insight into how students engage with library resources in digital environments. Teachers and librarians can use the results of this study to better educate students on information literacy.
