Discussion on tracking and managing instruction value

  • 1.  Discussion on tracking and managing instruction value

    Posted Oct 27, 2020 02:16 PM

    Library Instruction Colleagues:

     

    In recent months, have you made adjustments to the way that you track, assess, and demonstrate the value of information literacy instruction? Of course you have, it's 2020! 

     

    The ACRL Instruction Section Leadership & Management committee is hosting two opportunities for virtual small group discussion around topics of instructional services management during COVID-19. There will be no presentation, but instead a chance to chat, learn, and maybe even strategize with a small group of colleagues who are working through similar issues. The two discussions planned are:

     

    Discussion Event #1

    Discussion Topics: Strategic development of virtual learning and tracking/reporting instruction

    Discussion Event #2

    Discussion Topics: Managing change and demonstrating value during disruption

    Please note that access links will be emailed the Monday before each event date.  If you have any questions about this discussion series please contact the organizers Amanda Click or Sheila Stoeckel.
