Online courses: ACRL Framework: Backward Design

Both run by Andrea Baer
The ACRL Framework for Information Literacy: Reframing Teaching Practices. January 7 – February 17 2019. Price: US $250. "The ACRL Framework for Information Literacy for Higher Education (Association for College & Research Libraries) invites librarians to think in new and creative ways about how we support teaching and learning within and beyond the classroom. This interactive workshop is an opportunity to explore and to develop pedagogical approaches that draw from the Framework in order to help students develop critical, practical, and transferable information skills. Participants will also reflect on their roles as teaching partners and consider ways of approaching information literacy as a shared responsibility of all educators." https://inquiringteachers.com/courses/the-acrl-framework-for-information-literacy-reframing-teaching-practices/
Backward Design for Information Literacy Education. February 18 – March 31 2019. Price: US $250. "Backward instructional design is iterative process that begins with considering learning goals, then determining acceptable evidence of learning, and addressing those outcomes through sequenced activities. Learn about and apply four essential pieces of backward design to your teaching practice: “big ideas” (i.e., conceptual understandings), learning outcomes, assessment, and sequencing." https://inquiringteachers.com/courses/backward-design-for-information-literacy-education/
