Lessons Learned• Steps should be more closely tied to the IL
standards which include the students performing their own article searches, not just retrieving exactly what we give them.
• To identify resources beforehand and know if enough of a variety are available.
• Limitations of EBSCO tool (Face Book, Oxline in Doram).
More Lessons Learned• Self-enrollment needed further explanation or
insert the module into the course. • For assessment of the module, it would be
ideal to compare the students who complete it online to students who receive the lesson in-person.
Still More Lessons Learned• We did not consider if any students needed
accommodations. We should ask if any students have accommodations from Student Affairs and if any of our ESL/EFL students need modified versions.
• Students identified more with peers in video.• A new, contemporary topic should be
considered each year. Currently in process of this!
