INLS 214: USER EDUCATION

Evelyn Daniel, Ph.D., Instructor

Summer 1999

Course Description

This course is intended for LIS students (both LS and IS) who wish to prepare to provide a formal training program of some kind. The course will examine the history and context of LIS training programs (variously called bibliographic instruction, information literacy, user education, information management education, short courses in information technology use, and the like) through reading and speakers. Pedagogy and teaching skills will be directly addressed as well as practice and evaluation of others. Students will have the opportunity to tailor one or more learning projects to their particular interests.
