  11. In the classroom with Tara… …What changed?

  12. I experienced… New educational approach Conversation & Discussion Teaching techniques: a confirmation

  13. I experienced… GO TEAM!!! • Personal traits: • motivation • everybody at ease One-on-oneconferences

  14. Benefits Teaching Breaks Team building Atmosphere

  15. Benefits Networking Lunch breaks together in the Tiber Café Sharing ideas Marketing myself Meeting other faculty

  16. Benefits Interacting • Students saw me at the same time as a: • reference (point/librarian) • classmate (doubts, opinions)

  17. Lesson learned - Every character in this story learnt something • Easier, more direct relationship with students and more beneficial to them • Better understanding of the overall educational system • Acquisition of new teaching techniques • Outreach to other faculty and better networking

  18. Lesson learned - Every character in this story learnt something • Librarians as “friendly faces” • Research appointments can be shared • Feedback on instruction • A librarian in class is an added resource • Closer collaboration with library staff • Collaborative experience • More vibrant classroom • Better research experience for the students

  19. Lesson learned - Every character in this story learnt something • Increased confidence with librarians and library resources • Research appointments make using library services a habit • The librarian in class knows what the professor wants • NEGATIVE: • impropriety of third • person during one- • on-one conferences
