From TLT Group World
Headquarters

Join us this Thursday as we "march" into March, boldly
revisiting the Roundtable! In our March Symposium, New Roundtables for Collaborative Change, TLT
Group presenters and participants will adapt and demonstrate an effective
planning and decision-making process designed for issues that require the
expertise and support of an unusual variety of key stakeholders within a
college or university - namely, the TLT Roundtable approach.
If you’re
interested in thinking with us about these issues and how to address them, if
you have relevant ideas or experiences, and if you want the experience of
participating in a “fishbowl” TLTR, you’ll be welcome to join us for this
three-session Symposium. Registration is free for TLT Group Individual and
Institutional Members. |

"arguments had no effect on the practice until...their
nation had become objects of ridicule"
Toys like spy glasses and laser tag sets...could actually perform serious surveillance We're over-communicating and under-connecting according to inventor of email! Silent cinema (no voice! no text!) "gave an actor super-expressive power..." Is text without audio better for teaching/learning? Is voice without text better for T/L? |

It Takes Librarians and Faculty: Using Project Information
Literacy to Improve Student Research Skills
Tuesdays,
March 13 and 20, 20122:00 - 3:00pm EDT Leaders: Steven Bell, Temple University
The better our understanding
of the process students go through in conducting academic research and their
behavior as researchers, the better job we can do in helping them to become
better researchers, better writers and more critical in their approaches to
evaluating and synthesizing information. Whether you call it information
literacy or research skill building, helping undergraduates and graduate
students to become effective researchers is an outcome shared by librarians
and faculty. In this workshop, led by Steven Bell of Temple University, the
findings of research studies produced by Project Information Literacy will be
used as a framework to enhance our knowledge of student research behaviors
and explore strategies for helping them to strengthen those skills. Guests
will include Dr. Michael Eisenberg, co-founder of Project Information
Literacy (on March 13) and librarians who are using the Project Information
Literacy findings to reach out to faculty for collaboratively advancing
campus information literacy initiatives.
REGISTERThis workshop is free to TLT Group Individual Members. Check your institution's status here if you have your membership through an institutional subscription. |
