Description
Librarians at UC San Diego teamed up with a writing program coordinator on campus to re-imagine the one-shot library workshops provided to all of the college's first-year transfer students. An online tutorial on database searching made up of multimedia and active learning experiences was created for students to complete the week before the library workshop. / After learning about the research process, database search strategies and how to access articles in full-text, students were required to use their newly learned skills to bring printed articles they had found to the library instruction session. During the workshop with the librarian, students learned how to construct a research question.
