GLC 2019

Last year, I presented on how I incorporated real-world problem solving into my for-credit research methods class, illustrating the successes and failures of teaching the content in an unconventional method. I revamped the course again and would like to discuss the new successes, failures, and unintended outcomes of teaching real-world problem solving in a research course. In addition, I will discuss the tools I used to survey the students’ opinions on the new course format, what the literature says about incorporating real-world problem solving in library instruction and how it can be applied in courses, one-shot courses, and workshops.
