Librarian Toolkit for Working with Online Instructors and Students [video replay]
Description
Online programs and departments are increasing at many universities and colleges, and online and distance instructors and students usually feel isolated from campus programs and services. In this changing, academic environment, librarians have to shift their services to be more focused on reaching out to online programs. In this session, an Online Learning Librarian and a Non-Traditional Student Librarian from two public universities will cover tips and tricks for liaison and instruction librarians working with online students and instructors including:
- Creating synchronous virtual sessions using free tools
- Embedding in learning management systems (LMS)
- Programming, marketing, and communicating with online instructors and students
- Strategies for creating and managing accessible digital learning objects such as videos and interactive tutorials and modules
- Organization and assessment of online learning instruction and digital objects
Speakers:
Samantha Harlow, Online Learning Librarian (UNC Greensboro)
Kelly McCallister, Non-Traditional Student Librarian/Assistant Professor (Appalachian State University)
