INFOST 640: Information Literacy Instruction

Prof. Lyndsay Smanz

Scenario:

A First Nations Studies instructor at a public university tasks her first-year seminar class of 25 students with developing a research question that will allow them to critique and analyze depictions of First Nations persons in contemporary media for a summative final project where the students are split into small groups, with five students in each group. The end result of the project can take any form, and need not be a traditional research paper, but the instructor will approve the medium of the project in later stages of the project suite. She sees the formation of the research question as the first step in the project, and has scaffolded the project so that students will be able to meet with a reference librarian after they have a collective first draft of their research question, which has already been approved by her.

The instructor would like students to be able to incorporate a variety of primary, scholarly, trade, and popular sources into their project with the hopes of supporting their research question; so, with a 70-minute timeslot, she would like you to create a session that will allow each student group to identify at least five sources they can add to their shared annotated bibliography. The instructor will first send you a list of the draft research questions at least 48-hours before so that you can tailor your session to suit the research topics the students have isolated.

Outcomes:

By the end of the instruction session, students will be able to:

• In small groups, discriminate between the types of sources they are collectively including in their annotated bibliography with 100% accuracy.
