Information Literacy Program Learning Outcome 3

PLO3: Through engagement with information literacy instruction by a faculty librarian, students will identify the appropriate level of scholarship among publication types (scholarly journals, trade publications, magazines, websites, etc.) in order to critically evaluate the usefulness of the information for their research need.

Below are all Classroom Activity Reports written by faculty librarians that describe activity and assessment that support PLO3 since the Weinberg Memorial Library began outcomes-based assessment in 2013.

As of June 2022 there are 96 Classroom Activity Reports that map to Information Literacy PLO3.
