Abstract
  • Digital and information literacies instruction is truly a daunting and multi-faceted undertaking. Many librarians have begun to scale back what can effectively be accomplished in a one-shot bibliographic session due to time constraints. Instead, some instructors have started to focus more deeply on teaching toward just a few information literacy skills (such as Evaluation) that can be accomplished in the limited timeframe available. This is definitely a sensible approach. However, while the focus is often on broader information literacy outcomes, there are many smaller digital literacy competences addressed during typical library instruction such as computer navigation and hardware skills. These foundational skills are the building blocks of lifelong digital and information literacies. This presentation will re-emphasize these essential competencies and tie them into the overall information literacy mission of librarianship. The objective of the presentation is to acknowledge all the meaningful smaller learning outcomes library instructors teach that may have an impact on student success. Library educators are doing more than you realize. Let’s document, assess, and celebrate these accomplishments. This presentation will include an assessment rubric and lesson plan ideas.
  • Presented at 2012 Oregon Information Literacy Summit and Information Literacy Advisory Group of Oregon (ILAGO).
