Today's emphasis on metrics and personalization make evidence-based
instruction an imperative. In this practice-based handbook, the
authors draw on the research of the humanistic psychologist and
educator Carl Rogers to present an empathetic approach to
information literacy sessions, reference service, and outreach.
With an eye on everyday library work, they offer concrete,
empirically-based strategies to connect with learners at all
levels. Offering plentiful examples of pedagogy in action, this
book covers: 6 cognitive principles for organizing information
literacy instruction, with sample worksheets and organization tools
for instruction planning; how to establish rapport and kindle
learners' motivation; tactics for transcending "cite 5 sources" and
other uninspiring research assignments; educational evidence
debunking the mythical perception that because students are skilled
at computers and mobile technology, they already know how to do
research; questions to keep in mind for inspiring autonomous
learning; the power of story, as described by Joan Didion, Brene
Brown's Ted Talk, and educational psychology research; the science
behind information overload; and a balanced framework for
evaluating specific educational technology tools. Fusing theory
with practice, this handbook is a valuable resource to help every
practitioner connect with learners more effectively.
