  1. Map to Success Irina McLaughlin Donna Frazee CED/STLL

  2. Current Resources • Faculty • Information Literacy Modules • Writing Center • Faculty Center for Teaching & Learning • Ask a Librarian • Turnitin.com • Writing Across the Curriculum • Office of Integrity & Ethical Development

  3. Current Resources • Students • Information Literacy Modules • Writing Center • Faculty Center for Teaching & Learning • Ask a Librarian • Turnitin.com

  4. Issues • Faculty • Writing guidelines across colleges and departments vary • Unaware of available resources for referring students (writing conventions, and others) • Scattered resources lack connective thread • Time and motivation (pay-off) • Training of adjuncts for continuity (academic integrity, incorrect use of writing conventions, and others)

  5. Issues • Students • Requirements/expectation for guidelines vary by instructor (no uniformity of what is correct versus acceptable) • Writing Center attendance (apprehension, uncomfortable/fear, time, resources, others) • Literacy Modules – motivation (students can pass w/o transfer of skills) • Ask a Librarian – scheduling

  6. Goal • Change academic culture, where both faculty/adjuncts and students embrace the significance of academic integrity and writing conventions. • Objective • Students apply the writing conventions appropriately in their academic work; faculty applies clear and consistent guidelines for assessment.

  7. Vision • Multi-step, on-going process involving cooperative action from all partners (such as FCTL, WC, WAC, IED, Library Services)

  8. Next Steps • Expand FCTL training for faculty/adjuncts by creating/or accessing Literacy Modules addressing writing conventions (i.e., correct quoting, citing, paraphrasing) • Define clear, concise and consistent guidelines for faculty/adjuncts across departments and colleges • Recommend embedding “Ask A Librarian” URL as a standard within syllabi and all online courses

  9. Potential Barriers • Peer resistance to change • Student resistance to structure • Perception of what services should be available versus current provisions • Limited resources (personnel, time, financial) • Differences in perception of academic integrity significance
