Welcome Faculty!
Use links below to assign/embed library information literacy modules into your syllabi and course pages as weekly assignments/OR as appropriate for your curriculum.
All toolkits by default recommend you assign one or more videos from the Basic Research Skills Toolkit, but you know the needs of your class and can pick and choose from these materials. The modules are designed to meet the toolkit competencies.
Note: All quizzes are self graded. Students receive the results upon completion of the quiz or activity; the results can be emailed or posted in Blackboard.
