Library Instruction for First Year Students Using a CMS Meta-Course: Scalable and Customizable!     

Megan Johnson 《Journal of Library & Information Services in Distance Learning》2017,11(1-2):262-268

ABSTRACT

This case study reports on the process for creating a self-paced non-credit information literacy (IL) course delivered via a university's course management system. The four online modules are designed to contextualize information literacy competencies within the curriculum taught in First Year Seminar (FYS) courses. The meta-course approach changes the model of delivery of instruction for IL from a traditional face-to-face “one-shot” session to a hybrid model, with the responsibility for content delivery shifting from the librarian to the instructor of the FYS course.  相似文献   

Sharing Our Library Facility: Prescott Valley Arizona Public Library     

Ted Johnson  Casey Van Haren  Michele Hjorting 《Public Library Quarterly》2017,36(2):154-166

The present Prescott Valley Public Library facility was created in 2009 as a space that was meant to be shared. The building was designed to be aesthetically unique and people friendly. Key elements include an auditorium for Town Council, a multifunctional meeting room with a kitchen and multimedia projection capabilities, a roof top terrace, outside patios, PC lab, Digital Media Lab, and a variety of smaller gathering spaces. Additionally, we share our facility with a satellite campus of Northern Arizona University, which affords frequent opportunities to collaborate in novel ways to connect with our community. Sharing is a value we learn early in life and it is the hallmark of professional librarianship. It is challenging, sometimes frustrating work. But the rewards far outweigh the risks. Those rewards extend to every citizen in our shared, county network—Yavapai Library Network. Throughout this article, we present a variety of practical aspects related to our experience, which may guide and inspire others to share their library space within their community.  相似文献   

Repurposing and Renovating Space for High-Density Storage: Kansas State University Libraries' Answer to Additional Collections Space     

Michelle R. Turvey-Welch  Roberta L. Johnson 《资料收集管理》2017,42(2):109-119

While many libraries have built new high-density storage facilities, fewer academic libraries have repurposed and renovated an existing building for that new end. This article details Kansas State University Libraries' experience renovating an existing structure for high-density storage purposes and the improved collection management options that resulted.  相似文献   

“If You Want the History of a White Man,You Go to the Library” 1: Critiquing Our Legacy,Addressing Our Library Collections Gaps     

Jennifer Bowers  Peggy Keeran 《资料收集管理》2017,42(3-4):159-179

ABSTRACT

In 1864, the same year the University of Denver was founded by John Evans, then the territorial governor of Colorado and the superintendent of Indian affairs, a group of U.S. militia attacked and killed vulnerable members of the Cheyenne and Arapaho nations at Sand Creek. Using critical race theory and the feminist “ethic of care,” we critique our collections in terms of the massacre and absent Native American voices in order to develop a collecting philosophy and direction to acknowledge and address the gaps and to formulate strategies for teaching students to interrogate a predominately white institutional archive to give voice to the absent or silenced.  相似文献   

Teacher Assessments and Literacy Profiles of Primary School Children in South Africa     

David Johnson 《Assessment in Education: Principles, Policy & Practice》1998,5(3):381-412

This paper reports on a study in which teacher assessments were a central part of a methodology for collecting literacy profiles of primary aged children in South Africa. The main focus of the study was to ascertain whether teachers could collect evidence of, and record, significant achievements in the literacy development of primary aged children.

The study set out to address a number of important questions. First, whether the Profiles of Learning framework could be used to profile the literacy development of primary aged children in South Africa, and second, whether teachers could engage with the demands of performance assessment, specifically in developing portfolios and keeping records of achievement.  相似文献   

Creating a Role for Embedded Librarians Within an Active Learning Environment     

Dawn E. Hackman  Marcia J. Francis  Erika Johnson  Annie Nickum  Kelly Thormodson 《Medical reference services quarterly》2017,36(4):334-347

In 2013, the librarians at a small academic health sciences library reevaluated their mission, vision, and strategic plan to expand their roles. The school was transitioning to a new pedagogical culture and a new building designed to emphasize interprofessional education and active learning methodologies. Subsequent efforts to implement the new strategic plan resulted in the librarians joining curriculum committees and other institutional initiatives, such as an Active Learning Task Force, and participating in faculty development workshops. This participation has increased visibility and led to new roles and opportunities for librarians.  相似文献   

Steer Clear or Get Ready: How Coping Styles Moderate the Effect of Informational Utility     

Benjamin K. Johnson  Silvia Knobloch-Westerwick 《广播与电子媒介杂志》2017,61(2):332-350

A 2x3x2 between-subjects experiment tested the effect of informational utility on selective exposure to online news stories. Trait coping styles were tested as moderators of informational utility. Informational utility intensity, characterized by greater magnitude, likelihood, and immediacy, increased selective exposure. A fourth dimension, efficacy, did not yield a main effect or moderate other message factors. However, coping styles demonstrated the proposed interactions. Individuals low on avoidant coping browsed messages with high informational utility longer than messages with low utility. Those low on problem-focused coping spent more time with high-efficacy messages; those high on problem-focus spent more time with low-efficacy messages.  相似文献   

Creating the Arsenal: Augusta University’s Undergraduate Research Journal     

Melissa E. Johnson  Kim Mears  Abigail Drescher 《期刊图书馆员》2017,72(1-4):128-133

ABSTRACT

The Center for Undergraduate Research (CURS) at Augusta University supports faculty-led undergraduate research. In collaboration with a student organization, the Program Coordinator of CURS contacted the Augusta University Libraries to investigate how to start an undergraduate research journal and identify a hosting venue. Two librarians provided guidance on the creation of a new Open Access journal using resources already provided by the university. This article discusses establishing the journal’s identity, developing policies and processes, hosting and publishing the journal, as well as challenges faced throughout the process.  相似文献   

Do pediatric chief residents recognize details of prepubertal female genital anatomy: a national survey     

Dubow SR  Giardino AP  Christian CW  Johnson CF 《Child abuse & neglect》2005,29(2):195-205

OBJECTIVE: To evaluate how well a group of recently trained pediatric chief residents could label anatomic structures on two different photographs of female prepubertal genitalia. Additionally, the study sought to explore aspects of pediatric training in sexual abuse and clinical practice issues surrounding the routine genital examination. METHOD: A 38-item questionnaire was mailed to pediatric chief residents at all of the officially listed pediatric residency-training programs in the continental US. Comparisons were made between this study and the responses to two previous surveys, which asked a more heterogeneous group of physicians to label one of the photographs used in the study. The second photograph was added because of its improved clarity of each anatomic structure when compared to the first photograph used in the previous studies. The study also asked about clinical practice issues surrounding the prepubertal genital examination. RESULTS: An overall response rate of 73% was achieved and analysis was done on 139 respondents. One-half of chief residents thought that their training during residency on sexual abuse was inadequate for practice. Sixty-four percent of chief residents correctly labeled the hymen on the photograph used in the previous studies, which was not significantly different from the 62% and 59% of physicians who correctly labeled the hymen in the previous surveys. In the second photograph, which more clearly displayed the various anatomic structures, 71% correctly labeled the hymen. CONCLUSION: Pediatric chief residents reported variable amounts of training on issues pertaining to child sexual abuse during residency, think that this time was inadequate, and, while doing slightly better than a more diverse group of previously studied physicians, did not achieve 100% accuracy in identifying basic genital structures correctly on two different photographs.  相似文献
