Pathway to Peace and Prosperity: A New Model and Partnership for Teaching the Introduction to Graduate Studies Course in French, German, and Slavic Languages and Literatures
Abstract
This presentation describes how subject librarians in three disciplines (French, German, and Slavic) worked together with teaching faculty to provide a robust program of library instructional support for a combined methods course for incoming graduate students in French, German, and Slavic Languages and Literatures. The presentation explores the rationale behind the various library-related components of the course; comments upon the value to students of the several of the library components (e.g., rare books assignment, digital humanities, open access, and alternative careers, etc.), and reports on the results of an experiment into the pedagogy of library instruction using mobile devices in a space that fosters collaborative learning. The presentation reports preliminary results of this pedagogical experiment with specific emphasis on the interaction among Slavic students and Slavic librarian.
