11. LibGuides (In a nutshell)

12. Logging In (try it now!) URL: http://tinyurl.com/collective- guide Username: jwgallant@valdosta.edu Password: c0llective Click on “LibGuides” in the “My LibApps” menu.

13. Click “Edit Existing Guide...” …and then select “OER Rush by Mike White” to get to the LibGuide.

14. Click the “+” to make your new page! “Home” is the description page for the overall project. My template is on this tab for you to copy!

15. Click “Reuse Existing Page” to get the options below. DO check the Copy option! You want to be able to edit the page. This would be “a top level page,” meaning it has a tab. Select a page, like my template. Select “OER Rush by Mike White” to access our guide. (Really, SpringShare ? A typo?)

16. Layout: Change the way boxes and columns are distributed on the page. Page Settings: Reorder the boxes, delete a page, etc.

17. “Edit the item” button. Add/Reorder: Add or rearrange stuff! “Edit the box” button.

18. Important Stuff to Know When Editing Unlike Version 1, V2 boxes allow you to add any content in one box (Links, text, embedded video, etc.) LibGuides isn’t used to having a team on one user account, so… Reload the page to get all of your team’s changes! Whenever you edit, most changes will reload, but not all. Unless you are editing the same exact item (a line of text, a link), your work should not be overwritten.

19. Let’s Rush! (quickly)

20. About Design Sprints… From Google Ventures: http://www.gv.com/sprint/

21. Overview Each team of superhero librarians will make one page (tab) on the LibGuide. This page can be about anything you would like it to be! (Groups will brainstorm.) The front page of the LibGuide has the open licensing information for the guide.

22. Log in! Log into LibGuides! URL: http://tinyurl.com/collective-guide Username: jwgallant@valdosta.edu Password: c0llective

23. Step 1: Setting the Stage Form teams of four or five! (2 minutes) Introduce yourselves! (2 minutes) Name your team! (1 minute) (If you’re stuck, name it after a favorite fictional character.)

24. Step 2: Unpacking Knowledge Create your space on our Google Doc (2 minutes): http://tinyurl.com/collective-notes Round Robin Brainstorm (7 minutes total): 1. (5 minutes) Take turns around the table throwing page topic ideas (anything!) on the GDoc. Then, either: 2-1. (2 minutes) Rank your favorites 3-2-1 each, and the highest score is the topic you have selected, or 2-2. (2 minutes) Come to a consensus decision. (This can take more time.)

25. Step 3: Sketch the Design (5 minutes) Name and outline the sections for your content. Are you teaching something in order? Or is it non-sequential? If you’re feeling adventurous, literally sketch what you would want to see on the page.

26. Step 4: Make Decisions (5 minutes) Determine who will do what in your team. In the Google Doc, type out these assignments.

27. Step 5: Make the Design Username: jwgallant@valdosta.edu Password: c0llective In LibGuides, make your sketch a reality! (20 minutes) Have other team members review your work at the end. (5 minutes) (In an design sprint, this is usually the “prototype.”)

28. Step 6 is usually “test.” Instead, let’s take a look! http://libguides.galileo.usg.edu/oer-rush

29. After today… We will keep this LibGuide going at http://libguides.galileo.usg.edu/oer-rush The account will no longer be accessible, but you are free to reuse, revise, remix, retain, and redistribute the content!
