Embedding Core Information Skills At The Point Of Need In First Year Science

Year: 2013

Type: conference-paper

Abstract: Online information literacy modules have been integrated into semester 1 units of study so that every commencing first year science student is now engaged in developing information skills as part of their disciplinary learning (Kift, 2004). A certificate of completion system has enabled these activities to be easily introduced by staff from a range of disciplines. This methodology has enabled skill development to be introduced with no duplication or overlap in the workload for students despite the range of course choices available and without core units.
