Through the assessment of information literacy in Foundation Seminars (2015), faculty identified three information literacy goals that resulted in the following recommendations.
Foundation Seminars should include assignments that have students:
- Search for and find appropriate sources
- Demonstrate their ability to evaluate sources for a particular purpose
- Integrate source material into an original work
A final recommendation is to partner with a librarian to design activities and assignments that will help students build basic information literacy skills. We look forward to working with you and your students!
