Information Literacy Toolkit: Foundation Seminar Faculty Resources

Best Practices for Information Literacy in Foundation Seminars

Foundation Seminar assignments should enable students to:

  • Develop academic reading skills by engaging with a variety of materials 
  • 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!
