Spanning the University to Improve Information Literacy e-Instruction
Get PDFIn Fall 2009, the interactive information literacy module "integrity Quickstart"(iQ) was introduced to first and second-year students at Miami University. iQ, which teaches information literacy and academic integrity concepts using the dynamic Flash-based presentation tool Prezi, is a companion to the existing eScholar, a more passive, in-depth tutorial.
iQ was created through a unique campus collaboration between the Libraries, University IT and Student Affairs.
