Session Objectives By the end of this session, you will have: Reflected on your own information and research behaviors and skills or those of your students Developed an awareness of what the literature claims about how students “do” library research Compiled some new ideas, strategies, resources, and models for to empower yourself or your students to conduct more effective library research

Let’s Start Off with a Question Think about your own experiences doing library research, or if you are teaching, what you have observed about how your students do library research. What are the ‘bottlenecks’ where students (or you) get stuck as they (or you) do research? Talk to your neighbor and then we will have a report back on your top bottleneck areas. https://www.ee.ucl.ac.uk/~mflanaga/thresholds_subjects.html https://pixabay.com/en/research-find-loupe-search-390297/

Why is Research Difficult for Students? McClure & Purdy, Eds., 2013 This is what the current research claims students experience when doing research : A daunting and frustrating process Involves information overload Takes too much time and is too difficult Requires the use of difficult and confusing tools Not as easy as using Google Don’t understand the recursive nature of the research process Not clear about how the electronic information is organized https://c2.staticflickr.com/4/3190/2976755407_d865cd672f_b.jpg

For Example http://www.cbronline.com/what-is/what-is-the-dark-web-4191203/

Other Findings in the Research Literature Poor Strategies for Searching Students are heavy users of the internet, not scholarly resources Students say they value scholarly resources but don’t always recognize them or use them Most common strategy – The Hub and Spoke Method – back and forth to search page Good Strategies for Searching Evidence of Digital Browsing Skills – quick scanning of sources for information with a strategic searching plan Information Mining – focusing on deep analysis of good articles Find treasures in the article reference list Journaling of words found, authors, common journals

How Can We Help Students be Better Researchers Emphasize the importance of uncovering good search keywords Help student understand the limitations and benefits of library databases (some are general; some discipline specific) Teach them to use good criteria for evaluating sources Nurture their “scholarliness” or curiosity to become active participants in research or model how to act like a researcher Get beyond focusing on basic digital database skills, & model how searching connects to other useful academic skills (ex. reflection, exploration, discovery, team work)

Think about the Types of Searching Content Driven Searching – Knowledge Reporting Less time and effort Method used by more inexperienced researchers Issue Driven Searching – Knowledge Creating Have a purpose for searching Use an angle to uncover information and report on that through synthesis, used by more experienced researchers Harder for students to just use the search once and done approach

Why is it important to help developing scholars acquire digital skills for research? To prepare students for 21st century research Engage students in the process of research Improve information organizational skills Develop skills needed to collect, and understand data that can be transferable to other problems Improve informational analytical skills To prepare students for changing research models, strategies, and tools Adjust to new emerging research models Tools are continually changing and students need to understand how tools work so they can transfer skills

Broad Strategies/Concepts for Integrating Digital Skills Research Process Information Behaviors Writing Process Articulate and encourage a recursive research process (McClure & Purdy, eds. 2013) Think of research as conversation around topics (McMillian & Hill, 2005) Help to develop a culture of research (undergraduate/research) and share what researchers do Build on students’ prior experiences with the research process (meet them where they are) Develop collaborative relationships around the process of research/writing Ask your students how they work with information to leverage prior experience Use Google, Wikipedia, blogs and wikis as pre- search tools (McClure, 2011) Focus teaching on the why of scholarly research not just how to use the scholarly resources Incorporate web 2.0 strategies to build on digital behaviors they already have Use collaborative digital technologies to engage discussion and sharing Intervene early – the topics and sources students use impact the final product Consider other projects such as primary research projects, I-Search papers, research logs Think about creating knowledge not just demonstrating acquired knowledge Look for ways to exploit digital technologies to make explicit connections between research and writing Writing can include collaboration and learning to critique is an important aspect of writing

Specific Ideas for Using Digital Strategies and Tools Research Process Information Behaviors Writing Process Use “googlepedia sources” to find out about the conversation around topics Use concept mapping and other visual strategies for brainstorming research topics (free tool- Cmap) Teach students how to “mine references” for clues to keywords, other subtopics, other authors Use citation sharing tools for collaborative writing projects (zotero, endnote web, delicious) Set up Google Scholar settings - “Get it t the U” Teach how to organize the research process using bookmarks and collaborative tools like zotero or endnote web or box.utah.edu and gcloud.utah.edu Teach the special database features that will make finding resources easier (faceted searching, filters, subject indexes, folders) Use “find” feature to search for keywords in articles Mine keywords in articles Check out Youtube for possible lectures on topics (esp. TED talks) Use Google Docs for collaborative writing Include multi-media/multi-genre options for research Use the Dragon speaking app on phone or tablet to talk out your paper ideas Plan out writing sessions (set time limits, write a plan for writing) Discuss and acknowledge the anxiety about writing, talk about how you write – personal tips Participate in peer review activities

Writing Program Administration WPA Outcomes Statement for First-Year Composition Specific Section on using digital tools for writing: By the end of first-year composition, students should be able to: Use electronic environments for drafting, reviewing, revising, editing, and sharing texts Locate, evaluate, organize, and use research material collected from electronic sources, including scholarly library databases; other official databases (e.g., federal government databases); and informal electronic networks and internet sources Understand and exploit the differences in the rhetorical strategies and in the affordances available for both print and electronic composing processes and texts Engage in the electronic research and composing processes common in their fields Disseminate texts in both print and electronic forms in their fields 

Framework for Success in Postsecondary Writing 8 Habits of Mind Curiosity Openness Engagement Creativity Persistence Responsibility Flexibility Metacognition Endorsed by the Council of Writing Program Administrators, the National Council of Teachers of English, and the National Writing Project.

Some Other Recommendations Pedagogy first – then Technology Consider context and student motivation issues when designing any research/writing learning activity Provide clear communicated expectations of learning activities (Assignment Transparency Project) Ensure learning activities are aligned with assessment and learning outcomes for the module and/or course (Alignment Grid) Skype for research consultations and writing, use audio comment feature in Canvas

Ask for Help!!!! Online (chat or email) OR Face-to-Face

How We Can Help You Why recreate the wheel for finding research resources … we already have them and we can help you and your students find resources more efficiently? There are library staff that can help in your courses – we do workshops, guest lectures, help faculty find research for their teaching and research. We can create a Canvas page to import into your course Use our Library/Subject Guides as starting points Just enroll us as a TA in your and we can field questions in a discussion forum

Available Library Resources Library Guides by discipline (online library research help guide Library liaisons for each discipline Allyson Mower, librarian who is a copy right expert Course Reserves request to connect library resources to Canvas courses Steaming video to link to courses

We now have library learning outcomes Canvas Page of Teaching Resources Library Instruction Outcomes Planning for Library Teaching Guidelines based on the QCF phases and library values Handouts on Research Strategies Library Assignments and Resources you can use in your course Coming Soon!!! OER Library Guide with disciplinary OER links
