Description

There's No I in Team: Collaborative Development of Online Instructional Modules. Rhonda J. McGinnis and Suzan A. Alteri, Wayne State University, Purdy/Kresge Library Providing meaningful Information Literacy instruction to thousands of freshmen each year is a daunting challenge facing university libraries. After the demise of a university required 1-credit library skills course, the Wayne State University Libraries tried to target information literacy at courses meeting General Education requirements. Unfortunately, these courses tend to he composed of either numerous 25-30 person or larger lecture sections. To provide hands-on, in--person instruction to students in all of the sections of even one of these courses can require 75-100 librarian hours in a single week. Servicing multiple courses drains staff time and energy from other necessary work, such as reference, or projects. To address this issue for one particular course, "BA1010--Critical Thinking for Consumer Decisions", a team was formed to develop a series of compact online modules that would replicate the essential information provided in the hands-on instruction sessions. If successful, it was hoped that this would form the model for the creation of additional modules for other required courses. This paper will explore the workings of the team, the development & implementation of the modules, and the overall effectiveness of the team approach to this process.
