Five years of first years: Success, challenges, and some solutions for teaching information literacy
Abstract
This article is based on five years of data collected from information literacy sessions given to English 1023 Composition II classes. The one-hour information literacy sessions were taught by the author, Susan Whitmer. Each session included information on how to use the TWU Libraries catalog and databases, how to evaluate information, how to ethically use information to avoid plagiarism, and citation theory.
