Information Literacy Program Learning Outcome 4

PLO4: Through engagement with information literacy instruction by a faculty librarian, students will articulate the key elements in their research questions in order to develop and execute a search strategy.

Below are all Classroom Activity Reports written by faculty librarians that describe activity and assessment that support PLO4 since the Weinberg Memorial Library began outcomes-based assessment in 2013.

As of June 2022 there are 99 Classroom Activity Reports that map to Information Literacy PLO4. Additional data for AY22-23 and AY23-24 coming soon.
