My session will explore the use of Universal Design to teach undergraduates article anatomy through ACRL's Framework "Scholarship as Conversation"
Abstract
In Fall of 2022, UGA Libraries Faculty conducted IL instruction for hundreds of undergraduate First-Year Odyssey students. As part of this required course, library faculty are faced with the challenge of conducting workshop-style instruction through a one-shot format, focusing on both integral library skills and how to interpret a research article. R&I Librarian, Jessica Varsa worked with Dr. Justin Ingels, Public Health faculty, to develop a lesson plan on reviewing and interpreting academic journal articles through the lens of the ACRL’s’ Framework that embraces active learning strategies.
This presentation will provide a critical reflection about active learning techniques used in their lesson, as well as those the presenters would like to incorporate in future iterations. Future techniques include those that can be supported in a hybrid or fully online learning environment. Techniques would include engagement through Padlet or Google Jamboard, as well as options for students to show what they’ve learned through an interactive poll or exit ticket. These techniques can be used to support students where they are in their learning.
