  1. Measure by Measure:Composing and Rehearsing a Campus-wide IL Rubric Jim Kinnie, Mary C. MacDonald and Elaine Finan Project funded by: Davis Educational Foundation, 2010 Wabash 2.0 Study

  2. Introduction • Scope of IL on URI Campus • Library IL Programs; scaffolded & incremental • Academic Majors w/SLOs of Information Literacy focus • Curricular Framework: • URI outcomes: Think critically, independently, take initiative based on informed choices. • Gen Ed Information Literacy student learning outcome

  3. Introduction • “Are URI students achieving information literacy • competency over the span of an • undergraduate program?”

  4. Take-Aways At the end of this session, you will learn how to: Adopt a model for building faculty collaboration around assessment Adapt a process that is transferable and expandable Identify opportunities for applying an information literacy (IL) rubric and engage multiple disciplines

  5. Overview Composing Rehearsing Measuring “Are URI students achieving information literacy competency over the span of their undergraduate program?”

  6. Composing Create a shared understanding before measuring for student learning ACRL Five IL Standards: • Determine information needs • Access needed information • Evaluate information sources • Use information to accomplish a specific purpose • Use information legally American Association of Colleges & Universities IL VALUE rubric framework

  7. Composing Rubric composition 2008-2012 Preparation: Campus wide rubric workshop – 3 librarians Library faculty, subject faculty, national expert, SLOAA Librarians, SLOAA, IDP Developmental scale for IL Competency Beginning, Approaching, Competent
