Seamless Library E-Learning Instruction
(Round Globe by mtwebman)
Elaine Settergren, Global Education Network
Breakout Session, Minnesota ARLD Day, April 29, 2011
Elaine Settergren spoke of her work in blended and embedded librarianship for 27 sections of composition for Globe Education Network, which is actually three different schools. After previously doing webinars, her new project to improve the writing quality of freshman composition students already has shown positive results since being implemented in January, 2011.
Ten library tutorials were created that could each stand on their own. The objectives and assignments from the course were tied together without any additonal budget for the course. A team approach was used with the Dean of General Education and the Instructional Designer working with the Librarian. In using the ADDIE approach, quality contol and evaluation were important.
ADDIE
ANALYZE - Needs, learning gaps
DESIGN - One master template for online courses (Used PowerPoint and GOOGLE Docs)
DEVELOP - Production, Development (Step that took the most time!) Adobe Captivate
IMPLEMENT - Publish and Link - Change assignments (Most exciting!)
EVALUATE - Survey Monkey, Informal email poll
The students in the comp. courses do one argumentative paper plus smaller papers. I was happy to see the examples in Tutorial Eight, Evaluating Scholarly Sources, and liked the interacive elements in the tutorial. After the presentation, I enjoyed visiting with Elaine Settegren, the presenter, about her work with students that she never sees being all courses are online.
