Webinar: Teaching at the intersections: Aligning scholarly communication and information literacy in the one-shot library instruction session

ACRL is offering a webinar on 7 April 2016 at 2-3pm US Eastern time (which is 7-8pm UK time): Teaching at the intersections: Aligning scholarly communication and information literacy in the one-shot library instruction session. "If we expect undergraduate students to interact with the products of scholarly communication throughout their college career and beyond, we are obligated to teach them about the processes, circumstances, and influences at play in their production. However, it can be difficult to dive into into the world of scholarly communication in a one-shot instruction session with limited time and many learning goals. With the ACRL Framework for Information Literacy for Higher Education and the Intersections of Scholarly Communication and Information Literacy white paper as its foundations, this webcast will provide participants with ideas and skills to develop pedagogical strategies that engage undergraduate students on a range of scholarly communication issues within a one-shot instruction session." This is a priced webinar (e.g. ACRL member: US $50; Nonmember: $90) - go to http://www.ala.org/acrl/teachingattheintersections for full details.
