Registration is open for the webinar “First-Hand Knowledge: Four Approaches to Experiential Information Literacy at Purdue”. It will take place on Monday, July 21, at 11:00 AM CDT.
This session explores how experiential information literacy (EIL) is used to advance student learning by four librarians at Purdue University. Rachel Fundator will describe how she is developing an IL community on campus through an undergraduate research program. Thom Gerrish will discuss the role of EIL in enabling students to learn about the environment at a field station in Michigan. Sarah Huber explores how EIL supports ‘making’ as a way of creating innovative forms of scholarship, and Samantha LeGrand will describe the application of EIL in faculty and student partnerships to advance AI literacy. Attendees will learn about the various approaches being undertaken at Purdue and consider avenues for implementing EIL projects on their campuses.

Participants can use attendance at these presentations to earn the Teaching Information Literacy Certificate being offered by the Libraries’ Teaching & Learning Department.
