In the ensuing eight months the science librarians have expanded their services, highlighting cross campus collaboration efforts as well as new approaches to supporting interdisciplinary and multidisciplinary research. Utilizing her experience with instruction and information literacy in the sciences, she helped form a workgroup coordinating cross discipline instruction on Tempe campus. She serves on the One Library Instruction Council which will facilitate information fluency efforts across all ASU campuses.

We are joined by Librarian Leslee Shell from the Fletcher Library on the ASU West campus and Ken Sweat from the Integrated Natural Sciences Department at the West campus to discuss new teaching methods for students of biology.

Ken and Leslee joined forces to get students past the heady language associated with scientific literature and tap into the vast resources available to them. There is a lot of language students may not recognize and far more resources today then there were just a few years ago. Leslee was also looking at bringing library instruction directly to the students and their curriculum. Leslee Shell and Ken Sweat

Leslee Shell and Student They work with concepts students can relate to and utilize material built around an innovative program linking cell biology, genetics and ecology via a focal organism, the desert tree lizard, as a model organism integrated into a core curriculum. Leslee and Ken work to engage students in the learning process, encourage them to ask questions and begin seeking information on their own.

Andrew and Ed collaborate on an online history methodology course which includes an embedded library component. The goal of the library component is to teach students how to do valid historical research online via web based library resources. They faced the challenge of creating effective tutorials and assignments for students around the world that may never set foot in the library.

Julie and Sheila will give us an overview of what to expect from the series and explain the concept of Information Literacy.

Librarians and faculty support the same mission and share similar professional obligations; namely to help students succeed academically. Both want students to be skilled researchers, use the most robust resources available, and ultimately, produce high quality papers. Each brings a different set of knowledge and perspectives on how to make this happen. These innovative collaborations have broken traditional roles to meet the changing nature of learning and access to information.

ASU Faculty and Librarians Team-Up for Students Success looks at new teaching methods and techniques that capture students’ imaginations, build confidence and gain the skills they need.

Five topics will be address within each episode:

  • What motivations created these collaborations?
  • What goals and outcomes are they expecting?
  • What new activities or approaches have they tried?
  • What differences did it make?
  • What are their next steps?
