Identifying Outdated Research Notions (Virtual Event)

Students, and sometimes even instructors, may have a wide range of misconceptions or outdated notions when it comes to information searching and research assignments. In this workshop, participants will learn about some common, but outdated, understandings about how to find, evaluate and use information as part of the research process. Participants will also collaborate in updating these notions to provide a more effective guidance to students.

For those affiliated with The Ohio State University, this workshop counts as credit toward the Teaching Information Literacy endorsement from the Drake Institute for Teaching and Learning.

Note: This workshop was previously offered in Autumn 2023 and Spring 2024

Do As I Say: Authenticity and the Research Process (Virtual Event)

When starting a research project, do you develop a list of keywords and synonyms before you search? Have you ever cited a source without reading the entire article? Do you always spend a significant amount of time evaluating each source you find?

When instructors and librarians teach students how to conduct research, we often outline specific steps that students should take and provide guidelines they should follow. But do we always follow these steps or guidelines ourselves? If we don’t, why not? And what does that mean for the way we teach research?

This presentation will explore the idea of authenticity in relation to how we teach the research process. Participants will be encouraged to think about how we can approach teaching the research process as it often is, rather than what we think it should look like.

This presentation is based on, “Never have I ever used Google Scholar: hypocrisy and authenticity in library and academic skills teaching,” presented by Rachel Davies and Joe Larkin at the Library LILAC 2024.

For those affiliated with The Ohio State University, this workshop counts as credit toward the Teaching Information Literacy endorsement from the Drake Institute for Teaching and Learning.
