Description
Web Apps offer low stakes platforms for developing library lessons that are easily modified, shared, and made interactive. I will discuss how I have used Storify, LucidChart, and Libguides to help students learn about conducting background research, evaluating sources, and determining and revising source needs. These experiences supplement the university’s one-shot library lesson for the University of Wisconsin-Eau Claire’s required Blugold Seminar on Critical Reading and Writing. The lessons are easily modified so that English Faculty teaching in the Blugold Seminar can adapt them to their individual sections.
