Teaching information literacy: Developing an online course for faculty

摘要

Creating an online information literacy course for faculty may seem daunting, as it requires moving into the realms of instructional design and faculty development. However, it can bring great benefits for both librarians and course instructors. At Ohio State, the Teaching Information Literacy course helps to enhance the visibility of the University Libraries as a partner in teaching and learning. While there are no plans for Ohio State librarians to stop providing instruction to students, instructor development programming is an additional way that librarians can support students' information literacy.
