GENERAL ANNOUNCEMENTS

Creating Informed Learners in the Classroom (CILC) Symposium

The founder of informed learning, Christine Bruce, will give a keynote address. Information literacy researchers, Drew Whitworth and Lorna Dawes, will give invited talks describing how they have used informed learning in their research and teaching. This event will also showcase the collaborative work of librarians and instructors who codesigned student projects that embed information literacy into disciplinary courses at three research universities in the United States (University of Arizona, University of Nebraska, and Purdue University).
