This narrative explores the evolution from traditional Bibliographic Instruction (BI) to an Inquiry Method that emphasizes student-centered learning and lifelong inquisitiveness. Focusing on instilling self-confidence, critical thinking, and problem-solving skills, the approach encourages students to engage actively in their learning. By fostering an environment where questioning is encouraged and collaborative learning is prioritized, librarians can empower students to manage and utilize information effectively. This transformative journey showcases the importance of adaptability and genuine inquiry in education.

Transcription de la présentation

  1. Journey from BI to IL Or How I Learned to Stop Worrying and Love the Inquiry Method

  2. BI IL • Goal: to teach students how to find information in the library • Goal: to teach students to manage information wisely; to encourage inquisitiveness; to foster lifelong learning

  3. Inquiry Method: “Student-centered method of education focused on asking questions” Good learner traits Inquiry teacher traits • Self confidence, bolder kind of intelligence • Pleasure in problem-solving • Keen sense of relevance • No fear of being wrong • Flexible point of view • Contemplative approach to answering • Ability to distinguish between fact and opinion • Comfort with the unanswered question • Avoid telling students what they “ought to know” • Talk to students in a questioning manner • Encourage thoughtful answers to questions • Encourage non-judgmental student interactions • Lesson plan flexible/ encourages problem-solving • Gauge success by how student inquiry behavior develops

  4. My early life as a BI librarian • BI as one-shots • Programs: CREW, business classes, applied psychology classes, seminar in contemporary world issues, MASH, education classes, radiography, Freshman Focus • Dog and pony show—show and tell • Students often getting the session two and three times • Not required

  5. Enough is Enough • Invited students to be the drivers • Designed interactive sessions • Visited classes only if they had an assignment • Asked faculty for student questions ahead of class time • Collaborated with instructional designer and faculty in the creation of library friendly assignments

  6. Meeting of the Minds • Information literacy finds its rightful place “embedded” in the CORE • Information literacy librarian is hired • Staff librarians transformed into “teaching librarians” • Creative juices are tapped and lesson plans are formed • Collaboration in Clearspace • Collaboration in our subject wikis and course wikis

  7. Practice makes Perfect….well, almost……. • Make lesson plans my own • Practice on the cats • Add “my” story • Sometimes start class with a poem • Some days are diamonds, some days are stone

  8. Wow, this is Challenging! • “Guide on the side” rather than “sage on the stage” • 4.5 librarians to cover ever-growing course load • Please speak up—waiting for a voice/enduring silence • I have to write on the board?? • Calling students by their names—you’ve got to be kidding……. • May I just please show them the library webpage……it’s so comforting…… • Hello faculty member, where are you?....oh, grading papers in the back of the room 

  9. Letting Go, Growing Strong • Using inquiry to teach inquiry • Sharing successes, failures, frustrations • Inquiry powerful tool for teambuilding, collaboration, and individual development • Vulnerability and authenticity

  10. Goals & Expectations exercise: IL program “cornerstone” • Inquiry-based: encourages students to think about the role of information (literacy) in their daily lives • Outcome: “combines new information with existing knowledge to generate new ideas and address a particular problem or question. • Revolves around 3 key questions: • Where does information come from? • What do you want the information you use to be? • What do you expect the information you use to do for you? • “Real World”: Putting your goals & expectations to work

  11. Programmatic SWOT Strengths Weaknesses • Our staff • Our faculty • A new librarian • Support from CORE Dean • A lot of ideas • Good students • Good track record • Inquiry method • Number of librarians • Size of incoming class • Newness • Short prep time • A lot of ideas • Overextending • Classroom space • Scheduling

  12. SWOT continued Opportunities Threats • Teach a lot of classes • Newness • Inform faculty about IL • More contact with faculty & students • Expand library presence • Personal growth • Assessment culture • Students all four years • Get ‘em while they’re young • Web 2.0 • Teach a lot of classes • Sustain new initiatives • Time for our individual obligations • Burnout • Assessment culture • Covering program sessions • Old BI model

  13. The good news is….we “keep on truckin’” robert crumb, zap comix, 1968
