Session M: Information Literacy Assessment: Session 1: Program Assessment

The first part of a panel presentation regarding assessment and instruction. Carol Franck was unable to present.

Geneseo:
Bonnie Swoger
SAILS

Incentive: $3 for café OR $3 donation to student group charities.. the second option was very successful.
The results from the survey help reinforce the amount of time and energy that SUNY Geneseo librarians are putting into instruction across the curriculum.

"Negatives:"
No access to individual student data.

Will not use in the immediate future,
Will do a new home-grown assessment for their Freshman writing class.

Walking backwards into Information Literacy Learning
Jim Nichols SUNY Oswego

Tutorial/worksheets
Rubric … meaningful learning
They don't believe in "skills" but rather in big conceptual tools as guideposts to continuing practice; meaningful learning, and care about what students learn "to be."
First year: Rubric applied to worksheets sample in 3 year gear cycle
Capston: Discipline-Specific rubrics applied to capstone project
Integrated into five year program review cycle
Both levels: Information literacy items in NSSE
