| dc.description | Our group comprised of academic librarians and one professor from three post-secondary institutions. Since we each strive to integrate information literacy into curriculum, we worked together to develop a single cohesive presentation. I synthesized the core theories and concepts, as well as, differences in our approaches to information literacy, in order to deliver a theoretical grounding to our presentation. This freed up time for each institution to present in more depth the specifics of their experiences. I also presented details of projects which I have helped develop and deliver at Athabasca University. The presentation was well attended by approximately 100 people. A valuable discussion followed the session. Appreciation for the material covered was expressed at the session, as well as, informally to me throughout the remainder of the conference.
From working with the other presenters, I have learned approaches that may be well suited for AU. They have also shared some tools with us that we may adopt for use by AU students, faculty and staff.
It was a valuable experience and I appreciate the opportunity to participate. | en |
