Nobody Told Me I’d Have to Teach! Strategies for the Accidental Instruction Librarian
Description
Many people become librarians because of a love of research and reading or a strong commitment to public service - not because they love getting up in front of groups and teaching. Yet academic librarians are more frequently finding themselves thrust into the teaching spotlight by the increasing demand for library skills and information literacy programs. This workshop uses a little lecture mixed with a lot of discussion and meaningful activities to explore some pedagogical fundamentals that will help you become better in the classroom.
What will be covered:
- Planning effective content and negotiating with teaching faculty
- Improving delivery for increased student outcomes
- Evaluation and assessment
Who Should Attend
Anyone who finds themselves in front of an audience more that they anticipated and would like ideas on how to make the experience rewarding for both you and the audience.
