MOBIUS Post-Conference
“Instruction Deconstruction: Tips and Tools for Revitalizing a One-Shot Library Instruction Session”
For the second year the Missouri Association of College and Research Libraries (MACRL) sponsored a post-conference workshop after the Annual MOBIUS Users Conference on June 9, 2005 at the Lodge of the Four Seasons in Lake of the Ozarks. This year’s workshop, entitled “Instruction Deconstruction: Tips and Tools for Revitalizing a One-Shot Library Instruction Session”, was led by Lori Mardis, Information Librarian at Northwest Missouri State University, and Carrie Donovan, Reference Librarian and Library Instruction Coordinator at the University of Missouri – Kansas City.
The workshop covered a variety of topics related to teaching the 50-minute library instruction session. Topics included assessing student learning, active learning techniques, the instructional design process, assessment of instructional needs, generational learning styles, motivational methods, learning and teaching styles, outcomes assessment/statements, assessment tools, and promotion of library instruction. The workshop included informational presentations and large and small group discussions. The presenters provided many handouts showing sample materials, links to resources at other libraries and references to additional resources. Workshop attendees particularly liked the opportunity to share ideas with others. Participants commented that the workshop provided “great ideas for serving the varying learning styles,” and “I found the handouts and resources provided to be excellent! Both instructors were knowledgeable; both were excellent instructors.”
