...do we do that?
“Students’ self-esteem, often challenged by library mystery and seeming complexity, may plummet if students feel lost in the library. Students may suffer further when they enroll in college-level courses in which the professor expects the students to utilize the library’s resources.” (Thomas, 2000)

...do we do that?
It is essential to:Create a positive attitude towards the libraryAdapt students to an academic library environmentIncrease confidence in utilizing library resources
Why? The goal is to create an environment in which students feel connected to the library, its staff, and using its resources.

Design library assignments for developmental courses that have a probability of success
Topic selections Limit resources Put students into the right
place at the right time to minimize frustration
![Page 13: Who? What? How?](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022061111/54556887b1af9f33608b4817/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Design library assignments for developmental courses that have a probability of success
Develop confidence Ideally assignments should
be tailored to a student's specific interest and needs
There is no one size fits all approach for all students.
![Page 14: Who? What? How?](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022061111/54556887b1af9f33608b4817/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
*Things to keep in mind*
Use instructional practices that build on each other
“For a given objective to be attained, a student must have experiences that give him an opportunity to practice the kind of behavior implied by the objective.” (Knapp, 1956)
![Page 15: Who? What? How?](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022061111/54556887b1af9f33608b4817/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
*Things to keep in mind*
Instruction sessions need to have clearly defined objectives.
Skills taught in isolation are less likely to be applied to further coursework
A student does not learn by being told how to use the library but by using it
![Page 16: Who? What? How?](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022061111/54556887b1af9f33608b4817/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
*Things to keep in mind*
Instruction that is integrated
with other instruction will
reinforce itself Instruction cannot be presented
as another form of “busywork”
![Page 17: Who? What? How?](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022061111/54556887b1af9f33608b4817/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
Hands on/active learningMultiple smaller sessions
build upon prior knowledge
rather than one shot
sessions How do you find a book? How do you find an
article? Difference between
searching the internet and using databases?
![Page 18: Who? What? How?](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022061111/54556887b1af9f33608b4817/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
Hands on/active learning
For example: Students read a novel for classLocate background information on the topic of the novelIdentify key events during the novel's time period Complete research on the author
![Page 19: Who? What? How?](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022061111/54556887b1af9f33608b4817/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
Hands on/active learningSelf-Paced Modules Computer assisted
instruction Incorporate audio/visual
materials Step-by-step instructions
with screen shots rather than simply describing an assignment
