This course is primarily about Information Literacy and Information Problem-Solving. Learning to use the software is secondary.
This course provides an introduction to techniques of information retrieval and information evaluation. Students completing this course will have the skills needed to locate and critically evaluate information, to think critically about research strategies, and to apply these concepts to undergraduate research using Library resources and the Internet.
Emphasis will be placed on your ability to formulate research plans, to evaluate and organize information, and to present it effectively and responsibly. Recognizing that professional writers in a range of organizations must locate and critically evaluate information from a wide range of sources, this course will help you develop the research skills you need, especially for working in non-academic settings (though academic sources may often be required in those settings). We will approach both research and writing as recursive, problem-solving processes, seeing research as an integral part of the writing process. The formulation of research plans and research questions will be set within the context of overall rhetorical planning for a piece of writing. You will be taught how to develop search strategies and techniques for using libraries, the Internet, and other sources including archival repositories. Special emphasis will be placed on the need to evaluate sources critically and methods for doing so, as well as on the ethical and legal issues involved.

For the purpose of this survey the term tutor is described as:
The survey is divided into two sections. The first one explores the characteristics of your organisation that impact on the training you provide and the profile of your users. The second section focuses on your professional profile. The data gathered by this survey will inform the customisation of the FILE course in order to help you identify and address your Continuing Professional Development (CPD) needs.
FILE aims to equip participants with the competences and the confidence required to produce a portfolio of learning resources that fosters effective use of information by specific groups of users. This course is commissioned by London Health Libraries as part of the Learner Support Programme (LSP) and accredited by London Metropolitan University as a 20 credit postgraduate module.
The seminar has been organized by the Libraries Group within the Tertiary Alliance (which involves the University and regional polytechnics). Some 90 participants from nearly all the major polytechnic and university libraries around New Zealand, as well as a number of Waikato University academic staff, are attending.
researchskills.co.uk has worked for the past two years to craft intensive training courses in intermediate and advanced online research.
This site includes some classified information sources for students who are interested to Locate appropriate information, Evaluate and Use information effectively and responsibly. All information sources have classified to seven groups: Understanding Organization of Knowledge Identifying Information Need Identifying Appropriate Information Locating Information Evaluating Information Organizing and Synthesizing Information Using Information Responsibly
To explore how teachers and students around the world are using the Internet in the classroom to enhance student learning. You will learn to locate the exact information that you want, to recognize information that is of the highest quality and reliability, and to apply the information effectively in your lesson plans. Activities include everything from the use of various search strategies to the evaluation of online data.
This course will introduce faculty to the principles and concepts of information literacy and emphasize the importance of teaching these skills to our students through a systematic program. Discussions, readings, guest speakers, and in-class activities will cover the following topics: the relationship between information literacy and critical thinking, the importance of assessing information literacy skills, combating plagiarism, and creating effective library research assignments. Faculty will also have an opportunity to update their research skills using online catalogs, online article databases, and the Internet.
This course introduces students to the world of information through a variety of perspectives- the popular/public, professional/industry/trade, and academic/scholarly. All sections of the course teach students the concepts of information and how to identify, find, evaluate, analyze, and use information effectively. This understanding greatly impacts how students communicate within the academic world, their communities and in the future as employees and employers.
You will learn about the flow of information, how to be effective at the research process, how to access information in a variety of formats, and how to formulate effective searches on electronic databases and the Internet. You will also be taught how to evaluate the quality of Web-based and print information, and will become familiar with practical, social and ethical issues relating to information.
