1 Information Literacy by Design: Librarians and e-Learning Cory Laverty Queen’s University

2 My e-Learning Experiences Handouts – screenshots – workbooks – PowerPoints to web Tutorials with ScreenCam – Macromedia Captivate Online certificate course for faculty on Foundations for Learning with Centre for Teaching and Learning Information literacy modules embedded in online courses Full online course – Honours Specialist Librarianship Mini required course for 80 faculty who teach online courses at Faculty of Education: Teaching and Learning in an Online Environment; has IL module Learning technology teams -- solutions for specific courses

3 Your Experiences Think of one thing from your own experiences with online learning materials that you feel accomplishes the outcome you intended.

4 Outcomes http://library.queensu.ca/wiki/elearning/ Purpose of the e-learning wiki. How it can support your work. Basic principals of creating an effect e- learning environment. How you can contribute to the wiki.

5 Origins of this Wiki E-learning

6 Why a Wiki? wikis

7 Learning Object Repository Wiki Share/re-use e-learning guides and tutorials. e.g.: ANTS CLOE CORIL EDNA MERLOT PRIMO … and more Build knowledge together. What works in theory. What works in practice. Starting points. Tips and tools. Share ideas. Learning reflection.

8 Wiki Guidelines Authors Register yourself: click Login – click Register. Open access to all pages. Click edit on any page and save.Content Initially populated with exemplars in Gallery. Describe an information literacy tutorial you’ve created. Apply what we know from research on learning. Key readings offered rather than collection of links.Reflection Share how you use an online tutorial. What are your successes and challenges.

9 Wiki Content What are our top questions when designing instruction? activitiesWhat types of online learning activities help students understand information literacy concepts? design principlesWhat are the key design principles that make for quality learning in an online tutorial? evaluationWhat forms of evaluation reveal what students learned in a tutorial? lessons learnedWhere can I read about lessons learned from librarians who have already done this? get involvedHow can librarians get involved with e-learning initiatives on your campus?

10 Wiki Outline Introduction What is e-Learning? Role of Librarians in e-Learning Learning Theory for Librarians Principles of Good Library Instruction Practice Principles of Enhancing Learning with Technology Gallery of e-Learning Case Studies Models for e-Learning Partnerships Starting Points for Libraries and e-Learning Standards for e-Learning Tips and Tools for e-Learning Learning Object Repositories

11 What is e-Learning? Individual or group use of electronic mediums that provide access to online learning tools and resources. e- Learning Online Tools Learning Resources Context Participants Strategies Learning Outcomes

12 What is e-Learning?

13 Role of Librarians in e-Learning

14 Learning Constructs for Librarians

15 Principals of Good Library Instruction Encourage contact between students and librarian. Develop reciprocity and cooperation among students. Encourage active learning. Give prompt feedback. Emphasize time on task. Communicate high expectations. Respect diverse ways of learning.

16 Enhance Learning with Technology

17 Creating an e-Learning Environment Jonassen suggests 6 factors: Problem space: select problem type (case study, rule application, analysis, comparison; check Bloom’s Taxonomy ) Related realistic materials: examples of cases to support learning from which learner can extrapolate Information resources: references, readings, websites Cognitive tools: to support information collection and analysis – e.g. www.visual-literacy.orgwww.visual-literacy.org Conversation and collaboration tools: discussion forums, chat, whiteboards, virtual reference, mail, listservs Social/contextual support: general communication; mentoring – one-on-one Jonassen, D.H. (2000). Toward a design theory of problem solving. Educational Technology Research and Development 48/4,63-85.

18 Cognitive Tools: SMART Ideas

19 Cognitive Tools Conceptual Frameworks

20 How to use a concept map?

21 Information Literacy Coordinator Join/create learning technology teams. Work with Centre for Teaching and Learning. Offer faculty workshops (assignment design, multimedia for teaching) Library template for online course tools. Join institutional repository & online learning committees ?? Models for e-Learning Partnerships

22 Starting Points Portal on course pages using template Establish partnerships: Faculty,TAs Infrastructure: Website, guides, help systems Learning Commons Inquiry workshops Campus committees Research tools workshops

23 Tips & Tools for e-Learning Core Principles for Online Learning (Clark and Meyer): Multimedia: Use words and graphics rather than words alone. Contiguity: Place corresponding words and graphics together. Modality: Present words as speech (audio). Redundancy: Don’t present words in both text and audio. Coherence: Adding interesting material can hurt learning. Personalization: Use conversational style and virtual coaches.

24 Good Questions From self-reflectionTo evaluative questions I understand how to do a keyword search. Select the keyword search that best captures the key concepts in the following research question. Create a keyword search on this topic. I understand that there are differences between scholarly and popular articles. List five features of a scholarly article. Which choice lists the key features of a scholarly article? I understand that I can search for journal articles using a database or index. Match the following list of databases with the types of resources you can find within them. I understand that availability of journal articles is checked by journal name in the catalogue. Identify how you would find out if this article (give citation) is in the library.

25 Learning Object Repositories ANTS: Animated Tutorial Sharing ProjectANTS: Animated Tutorial Sharing Project: Information literacy tutorials created by librarians from COPPUL. CLOE: Canadian Learning Object Exchange:CLOE: Canadian Learning Object Exchange: A collaboration between universities for the development and sharing of multimedia-rich resources. Connexions:Connexions: An open repository of educational materials and tools that offers high-quality, electronic course material in a variety of disciplines. CORIL: Cooperative Online Repository for Information Literacy:CORIL: Cooperative Online Repository for Information Literacy: Collection of information literacy tools from Canadian librarians. EDNA: Education Network Australia :EDNA: Education Network Australia : Repository of ICT innovations that demonstrate the latest tools and technologies, (e.g. learning objects, RSS feeds, wikis, blogs, podcasts, and other utilities).

27 Questions about e-Learning Outcomes: Purpose of the e-learning wiki. How it can support your work. Basic principals of creating an effect e-learning environment. How you can contribute to the wiki. One thing you learned today that you think you could apply? Please leave me some information.
