A New Approach to Science Education – EDUCAUSE Review

This is an article that I co-wrote with the director of McMaster’s Integrated Science program about the some of the new ideas and collaborations we’re trying. It’s great to be able to share our ideas with a wide audience. The article was originally published in EDUCAUSE Review.

Library 101 for iSci 2009

Technically, my first information literacy class. The first hour and a bit was taken up with this ‘lecture’, which included some opportunity to discuss evaluation criteria for websites, and a source jeopardy game.

Part II, the second hour and a half, required the students to find, collect, checkout, photocopy, print, and cite. They did this as a group, and some had to leave our location to visit another library. In effect, this was an opportunity to ‘troubleshoot’ common problems with me in the room.
