Steven Bell and John Shank, co-founders of the Blended Librarians Online Community and their guests, Laurel Cornell and Carrie Donovan, invite you to join them for the live webcast, “Collaborating With Faculty on Information Literacy Instruction: Using Visual Methods to Enhance Student Learning” which will take place on Thursday, December 3, 2009 at 3 pm. EDT.
Event Description: Students’ ability to create visual work is important in their understanding and learning of complex concepts. While visual literacy is a growing phenomenon of interest amongst librarians in a variety of settings, visual methods for teaching are centered around the learner’s ability to take in new knowledge and express it in an original, visual form. In this session, two members of Indiana University’s Visual Methods Research Group will explain their research in exploring visual teaching methods, as well as their collaborative efforts to integrate information literacy into an undergraduate course using visual methods.
Although this event is free, advance registration is required to reserve a virtual seat. More information and the registration page is at: http://home.learningtimes.net/library?go=2266281
If you are not a member of the Blended Librarians Online Community, you will need to join in order to register (no fee to join).
