First year UG training: Before
• Fragmented, with gaps in coverage:– Face-to-face for lots of smaller programmes– Blended for about 250 students* in Skills for
Success module• Lecture - 30 minutes• Staggered 20 min. workshops in library training rooms• Online quiz assessment (5% of host module)
* Meehan, David (2009) Optimising information literacy delivery to large classes: the contact or the online approach? In: AISHE International Conference Series 2009: Valuing Complexity: Celebrating Diverse Approaches to Teaching & Learning, 27-28 August 2009, NUI Maynooth, Co. Kildare, Ireland.

Then
• Changes to Skills for Success led to further fragmentation and gaps
• Struggle to find training opportunities:– Core and optional modules– Overlaps between programmes, schools and years
of study

Does online instruction work?
• I was convinced by improvements in:– Tech– “E-pedagogy” (my own and community’s)– Best practice

Benefits of online instruction
• For lecturer:– Outside of class time
• For student:– Can control of pace of learning– Available at time of need– Immediate feedback
• For librarian:– Scalable– Flexibility of teaching formats: text, video, activities etc.– New gadgets to play with

Feedback
• Positive (but limited) feedback immediately after tutorial and assessment:
– “I really loved the tutorial, it is so useful and I gained a lot of important information that are very helpful to me as a student. The tutorial is so clear and gave me an overview about everything I need to know.”

Improvements needed
• Avoid tech glitches• More quizzing and activities• Need to know more on UX (surveying? focus
group?)• Further demonstration of impact?
