WILL LIGHTNING STRIKE?: USING ACTIVE LEARNING TO HELP CONNECT STUDENTS TO INFORMATION LITERACY Arianne Hartsell-Gundy Humanities Librarian Miami University Poll Everywhere URL: Wiki: 40 th Annual LOEX Conference, Columbus, OH

ENGLISH 112 LITERATURE AND COMPOSITION Assignment required them to find historical context of text I wanted to create an activity to help students understand how to use sources to create the context Activity addresses Information Literacy Competency Standard One, Performance Indicator 2, Outcome E: “Differentiates between primary and secondary sources, recognizing how their use and importance vary with each discipline”

Primary and Secondary Sources Used

Questions Asked

WHAT IS A PRIMARY SOURCE? Sample Pre-test Answer: “The source which is primary and we should use them with citation” Sample Post-test Answer: “Newspaper from the time” EFFECTIVENESS OF ACTIVITY? STUDENTS NOT ENGAGED WITH ACTIVITY WILL NEED TO RESTRUCTURE OR CREATE NEW ACTIVITY

THEATRE 107 THE THEATRE MAJOR Instructor wanted me to introduce important resources for students in the major This library session was not tied to a research assignment She wanted me to do an “activity” Activity addresses Information Literacy Competency Standard One, Performance Indicator 2, Outcome B: “Recognizes that knowledge can be organized into disciplines that influence the way information is accessed” And Outcome C: “Identifies the value and differences of potential resources in a variety of formats (e.g., multimedia, database, website, data set, audio/visual, book)”

Example Theatre Class Group Activity

EFFECTIVENESS OF ACTIVITY? INSTRUCTOR’S COMMENT: “Thanks again for all you did for my class today. They really enjoyed it…I know I did! STUDENTS ENGAGED WITH ACTIVITY Next semester same students retained some information about resources ACTIVITY MATCHED THE NEED OF THE CLASS AND THE PERSONALITY OF THE STUDENTS
