Scheduled Instruction, often referred to as "one-shots", is designed to improve students' research, metaliteracy, and digital literacy skills by incorporating information literacy instruction in the classroom. Librarians and archivists work closely with faculty to develop lessons that integrate with course assignments and SLOs.
Library instruction takes place during a scheduled class session, either in a library classroom or in the class' regularly scheduled room. It can also take place online, synchronously or asynchronously. Sessions often include some combination of lecture/demonstration, discussion, or in-class research activities.
Scheduled Instruction includes, but is not limited to, instruction for First Year Students (FYE, ENGL 110, and Learning Communities), courses within our liaison areas, archival instruction, digital literacy instruction, and GenAI instruction.
