Gammons, Rachel and Lindsay Inge. "Making it Work: Developing a Student-Centered Assessment Model for a Large-Scale Information Literacy Program." Presentation at the Library Assessment Conference, Arlington, VA, October 2016.

Abstract

Information literacy instruction presents a difficult balance between quantity and quality, particularly for large-scale general education courses. This paper discusses the overhaul of the freshman composition instruction program at the University of Maryland Libraries, focusing on the transition from survey assessments to a student-centered and mixed-methods approach using qualitative reflections, rubrics, and the evaluation of student artifacts.
