an academic skills programme
Rachel Myers & Simon Robinson
Skills@Library
University of Leeds
“If you think adventure is dangerous, try
routine. It is lethal”.
Paulo Coehlo
The challenge
• Info lit workshop
• Part of a wider academic
skills programme
• Voluntary
• All levels/subject disciplines
The aims of the session
• Creative
• Collaborative
• Challenging- for us too!
A new teaching space
Interactive lecture theatres
• 3 on-campus, all central teaching space
• Roger Stevens (44 seats)
• School of Mechanical Engineering (112 seats)
• School of Dentistry (100 seats)
• £2.8m investment
High tech/low tech
What the students
liked…
 “Great teaching space!”
 “Inspiring activities”
 “The quiz was really interesting”
98% learnt something that would improve the way they
work
What the students
didn’t…
 Session “not advanced enough”
 Session “not specialised enough”
Questions
• How can we make information literacy teaching
effective for a general audience?
• How do we make it challenging enough for students
from year one to finalists?

Notes de l'éditeur

  1. Dismantle our traditional sessions, focussed on training students to use a specific resource More about learning principles behind searching – what are you looking for? What are the limits of your research?
  2. To be More creative Interactive and collaborative- peer learning About the principles, not a specific resource Challenge our own assumptions!
  3. Students sat round small tables in groups, not in rows Students have a Think Pad on each table, and a mike- creating the expectation you will have to interact There are two presentation screens Students screens can be projected on to the big screen- peer learning We asked students to work in groups to find information answer a research question- one book, one article, any other item of their choice - then show their process on the screen Students asking each other questions: ‘Can you show me how that works?’
  4. Kahoot! is a free online tool for creating multiple choice quizzes, works on any device with an internet connection 10 question quiz to play in teams We stole Andrew Walsh’s questions
