| Types
of Instruction/Collaboration |
|
College Library’s librarians employ active learning techniques
to facilitate students’ acquisition of effective research and
information
competency skills. We strive to interact with students at the
teachable moment–whether in the classroom, one-on-one
at the reference desk or in virtual situations–when they need
to fulfill a specific information need.
College Library offer a wide range of instructional
options. Consult with Stephanie Brasley, Information Literacy Instruction Coordinator, about the right combination of instructional
experiences for your students.
