Framework for an advanced research information literacy (ARIL) programme for postgraduate researchers in engineering

Du Bruyn, Karien January 2017 (has links)
The need for an advanced research information literacy (ARIL) framework was motivated by challenges faced by several stakeholders at academic institutions to support postgraduate researchers in an academic context (e.g. supervisors, academic departments, academic libraries). This applies to the full postgraduate research trajectory stretching from master’s level to well-established researchers. Research must meet with institutional requirements, international standards and the expectations of industry and praxis. Information literacy skills are essential for successful conduct and reporting of research, as well as the dissemination of research results. What constitutes basic information literacy skills is well captured (although frequently revised) in standards of information literacy applied to various contexts, including the academic and workplace context. However, what constitutes ARIL remains a subject of research. This study therefore explored the concept from the subject literature before suggesting an ARIL framework that guided a case study with researchers on several levels of postgraduate research at a South African academic institution. Based on empirical findings, the conceptually inspired (based on a definition) ARIL framework was then reconsidered to recommend an ARIL framework for practical implementation that can also guide further research. Engineering researchers were selected for the empirical component as a group of researchers who need to meet the requirements of academic scholarship as well as industry. The study was guided by the following research question: How can an advanced research information literacy (ARIL) framework inform the development of programmes supporting the scholarly research process of engineers in a South African higher education environment? Six sub-research questions addressed various components of the research question: 1. What are the characteristics of introductory and advanced research information literacy programmes as reported in subject literature? 2. What are the documented information needs, information behaviour and information-related experiences of engineering researchers in academic institutions, as well as from industry? 3. What are the current self-reported ARIL skills of South African postgraduate engineering researchers? 4. How do information literacy skills, knowledge, and practices of engineers differ between master’s, doctoral, post-doctoral, established and expert researcher levels? 5. How can an ARIL framework assist to determine which skills need to be developed at various levels of the engineering research process? 6. Which guidelines and interventions are required to support the implementation of a comprehensive research information literacy framework for engineers? A mixed methods approach to a single case study was applied. Seven engineering departments from a South African institution with a leading faculty in engineering participated in the study. Data collection occurred between September and December 2015. A semi-structured, self-administered web-based questionnaire collected mostly quantitative data from 68 participants. Individual and focus group interviews collected mostly qualitative data. Twelve individual interviews were conducted, as well as three focus group interviews with 19 participants. A short, structured questionnaire collected demographic data from the interview and focus group participants. All participants gave written/electronically recorded informed consent for participation, as well as for the recording of interviews. Invitations were distributed to all master’s and doctoral students as well as staff in the department, through the department’s offices. Descriptive statistical analysis was applied to the quantitative data and thematic analysis to the qualitative data. Data collection was guided by typical phases in the full research lifecycle, including conceptualising a research topic, obtaining research funding, discovery of information, management and organisation of information, data collection/generation and analysis, data curation, creation of information formats, management of intellectual property rights, dissemination of findings and measurement of impact in a field of study. The thesis reports on findings for each. Three key themes are conspicuous: • Commitment to a culture of quality in postgraduate engineering research • Progression from dependent to independent and expert researchers • Preparation and positioning for impact in a specific field of study. The findings and recommendations from this study describe practices that could inform both theoretical and practical issues relevant to ARIL support for engineering researchers on all levels from master’s study to expert research.

Librarians’ Use of Instructional Design Methods in Creating Information Literacy Instruction

Wilson, Michael W. 01 January 2016 (has links)
The purpose of this sequential explanatory mixed methods study was to determine whether instruction librarians in the United States and Canada were using instructional design (ID) methods, and to identify potential explanations for their adoption or rejection of those methods. The theory of planned behavior (Ajzen, 1985) served as the theoretical framework for the study. Research questions examined the relationship between respondents’ reported use of ID methods and the following factors: (a) behavioral, normative, and control beliefs, (b) demographic factors, and (c) professional identity as teachers. A survey adapted from Ajjan and Hartshorne (2008) and from Julien and Genuis (2011) was distributed to members of the American Library Association’s Information Literacy Instruction Discussion List. Quantitative data from 101 subjects were analyzed using χ2 and t tests for independent sample means. Qualitative data from seven volunteers were compared to the quantitative data to identify areas of validation or disconnect. Pearson correlations between use scores and behavioral, normative, and control beliefs revealed that control construct scores (r = .59) had the strongest correlation with ID use, followed by behavioral (r = .56) and normative (r = .53) scores. Qualitative data supported the conclusion that there was a strong relationship between ID use and both behavioral and normative scores, but not between ID use and control scores. Chi-square analysis found no relationship between subjects’ use of ID methods and the length of time they had worked in libraries (χ2 = 5.14). A significant relationship was found between ID use and the length of time subjects had taught information literacy (χ2 = 7.91) and reported type of training in ID (χ2 = 24.59). Subjects who identified primarily as teachers used ID more than those who did not (t = 2.61).

The design and development of a digital information literacy program for an academic library

Sieberhagen, Elsabe Aneé 30 November 2005 (has links)
This dissertation is a report on a study to investigate the design and development of a digital information literacy program (DILP) for an academic library. The study is concerned with the exploration of the generic profile of the South African student at higher education institutions. The criteria for a digital information literacy program were also established. Based on the criteria and the profile of the students, the digital information literacy program was designed and developed. The research objectives were to * determine a generic profile of the South African student (as a member of Generation Y). * determine the criteria for an information literacy programme (ILP). * determine the criteria that a digital information literacy program should comply with (based on the criteria for a ILP). * design a digital information literacy program by documenting the elements and principles of design, navigation features, site architecture, etcetera. * develop a digital information literacy program by documenting the specific learning objectives and content and creating the Web based program. The study comprises a qualitative research approach and is concerned with the qualities and the characteristics of a phenomenon for better understanding and explanation. A critical analysis of reported research and literature forms the foundation of the study. The design and development of a digital information literacy program were based on the guidelines for Web based instruction in academic libraries. The results of the research enabled the researcher to design and develop the digital information literacy program, by integrating the following: * Characteristics of Generation Y * The criteria for a digital information literacy program * Factors important for designing in a Web environment, namely interactivity, site architecture, navigation features, principles of design, elements of design, incorporating media and learner levels * Authoring, technical aspects and the evaluating and testing of the prototype. The digital information literacy program is designed to provide academic libraries at higher education institutions with a product - a Web published CD - that they can use as is, or adapt according to their specific needs or circumstances, in order to support their students' digital information literacy skills. / Information Science / M.Tech.Information Technology

Developing information literacy programmes for public university libraries in Tanzania : a case study of the University of Dar es Salaam

Wema, Evans F. January 2006 (has links)
The aim of the research was to develop a training course that inculcated infonnation literacy that could be implemented by staff at the University of Dar es Salaam library (Tanzania), in order to provide students with appropriate infonnation literacy skills to meet their educational goals. The course was developed from an integration of knowledge from infonnation behaviour research and educational theory with current perspectives of infonnation literacy from Infonnation and Library Science (ILS). The ultimate goal of the research was to create a framework that would be used by public university libraries in Tanzania to teach infonnation literacy courses. The study was carried out in two parts. In the first implementation "pilot" programme, the course was tested by involving librarians who took the entire course, in order to see whether the same course structure could be used to implement to the Masters of Education students. Following adaptations made on the first course, a second course programme was implemented to Masters of Education students by two librarians who attended the first implementation "pilot" programme. Therefore, the success of the course was partly judged on whether it effectively enabled knowledge transfer from the librarians to students. Data collection methods were predominantly qualitative, although quantitative methods in tenns of diagnostic tests were also used. The tests were used to evaluate trainees' knowledge ofinfonnation literacy before and after the course to provide an indication of changes in knowledge. Qualitative methods used included semistructured interviews with librarians and academic staff at the University of Dar es Salaam in Tanzania in order to make sure that assumptions made about students' knowledge of infonnation literacy and the kind of problems experienced by students were correct. Other methods included quizzes, exercises, group reflection and presentations that related to each stage in the course. These methods served to indicate trainees' understanding of what was taught, reflections on the leaming process and provided feedback for improvements on the course. The major findings showed that there was a recognized need for infonnation literacy and that problems such as unfamiliarity with categories of infonnation sources, analysis, synthesis, evaluation and use, were experienced in Tanzania as was the case in other "Western" countries. In addition, librarians were able to transfer skills learned to students, who in turn used the same course materials to teach fellow students who did not participate in the course. Furthermore, the design of the course was facilitated by the integration of Information and library science (ILS) approaches to information literacy with the knowledge of information behaviour and pedagogic theory. The thesis provides recommendations for the library and information curricula to introduce information literacy, teaching information literacy in a holistic way and with librarians participating in teaching and research. In addition, the study recommended that librarians should facilitate the development of information literacy in primary and secondary schools.

Em âmbito internacional, existem instrumentos que verificam habilidades informacionais em diferentes contextos, que servem como um diagnóstico para o planejamento e aplicação de atividades de formação da competência informacional pelos bibliotecários e professores. Dentre eles, destacamos o Beile Test of Information Literacy for Education – B-TILED da University of Central Florida, o instrumento do Working Group on Library Instruction of the Subcommittee on Libraries of the Conference of Rectors and Principals of Quebec Universities – CREPUQ do Canadá, o Information Competency Proficiency Exam do projeto Bay Area Community Colleges Information Competency Assessment Project e o instrumento da universidade St. Olaf College The First Year Information Literacy in the Liberal Arts Assessment (FYILLAA) Project. Diante do exposto objetivamos, em um âmbito geral, analisar estes instrumentos. Em um contexto mais específico objetivamos identificar as habilidades informacionais abordadas; verificar os tipos de questões utilizadas; verificar orientações sobre a forma de análise dos resultados e relatórios gerados pelo sistema; comparar os resultados com a literatura; realizar um levantamento bibliográfico de artigos que tratam dos métodos e instrumentos que vêm sendo utilizados na avaliação da competência informacional; e desenvolver diretrizes para elaboração de instrumentos de avaliação da competência informacional para a educação superior no Brasil. A análise dos dados foi realizada utilizando-se a técnica de ‘Análise de Conteúdo’. Os resultados demonstraram que os instrumentos focaram as habilidades relativas à identificação dos termos da necessidade informacional, à elaboração e construção de estratégias de buscas disponíveis no parâmetro dois... / The information literacy assessment is a burning issue although little explored in Brazil. In the context international, there are some instruments to verify information skills of different groups of people, they are a diagnose to plan and apply activities of information skill formation by librarians and teachers. Among them we highlight Beile Test of Information Literacy for Education – B-TILED of the University of Central Florida, the instrument of the Working Group on Library Instruction of the Subcommittee on Libraries of the Conference of Rectors and Principals of Quebec Universities – CREPUQ, from Canada, the Information Competency Proficiency Exam from the project Bay Area Community Colleges Information Competency Assessment Project, and the instrument from the St. Olaf College, The First Year Information Literacy in the Liberal Arts Assessment (FYILLAA) Project. In this manner, we aim at analyzing these instruments in a general scope.

Santos, Camila Araújo dos. January 2011 (has links)
Orientador: Helen de Castro Silva Casaro / Banca: Regina Célia Baptista Belluzzo / Banca: Elizete Vieira Vitorino / Resumo: A avaliação da competência informacional é um tema candente e pouco explorado no Brasil. Em âmbito internacional, existem instrumentos que verificam habilidades informacionais em diferentes contextos, que servem como um diagnóstico para o planejamento e aplicação de atividades de formação da competência informacional pelos bibliotecários e professores. Dentre eles, destacamos o Beile Test of Information Literacy for Education - B-TILED da University of Central Florida, o instrumento do Working Group on Library Instruction of the Subcommittee on Libraries of the Conference of Rectors and Principals of Quebec Universities - CREPUQ do Canadá, o Information Competency Proficiency Exam do projeto Bay Area Community Colleges Information Competency Assessment Project e o instrumento da universidade St. Olaf College The First Year Information Literacy in the Liberal Arts Assessment (FYILLAA) Project. Diante do exposto objetivamos, em um âmbito geral, analisar estes instrumentos. Em um contexto mais específico objetivamos identificar as habilidades informacionais abordadas; verificar os tipos de questões utilizadas; verificar orientações sobre a forma de análise dos resultados e relatórios gerados pelo sistema; comparar os resultados com a literatura; realizar um levantamento bibliográfico de artigos que tratam dos métodos e instrumentos que vêm sendo utilizados na avaliação da competência informacional; e desenvolver diretrizes para elaboração de instrumentos de avaliação da competência informacional para a educação superior no Brasil. A análise dos dados foi realizada utilizando-se a técnica de 'Análise de Conteúdo'. Os resultados demonstraram que os instrumentos focaram as habilidades relativas à identificação dos termos da necessidade informacional, à elaboração e construção de estratégias de buscas disponíveis no parâmetro dois...

In the context international, there are some instruments to verify information skills of different groups of people, they are a diagnose to plan and apply activities of information skill formation by librarians and teachers. Among them we highlight Beile Test of Information Literacy for Education - B-TILED of the University of Central Florida, the instrument of the Working Group on Library Instruction of the Subcommittee on Libraries of the Conference of Rectors and Principals of Quebec Universities - CREPUQ, from Canada, the Information Competency Proficiency Exam from the project Bay Area Community Colleges Information Competency Assessment Project, and the instrument from the St. Olaf College, The First Year Information Literacy in the Liberal Arts Assessment (FYILLAA) Project. In this manner, we aim at analyzing these instruments in a general scope. In a more specific context, we aim at identifying the information skills mentioned by each of them; the types of questions they use; the way of analyzing data; reports generated by the system; to comparate the results with literature, do bibliographic survey of articles dealing the methods and tools that have been used in information literacy assessment; and develop guidelines for developing assessment tools of information literacy for higher education.

Information literacy skills among incoming first-year undergraduate students at the Catholic University of Eastern Africa in Kenya

Kimani, Hannah Njeri 25 November 2014 (has links)
Information literacy skills among university students have become a necessity rather than the norm. With the increase of information resources, the need for information skills among university students is important for their continued access to, and retrieval of, information. The purpose of this research was to investigate information literacy skills and competencies among incoming first-year undergraduate students in institutions of higher learning in Kenya, with special reference to the Catholic University of Eastern Africa. The objectives of the study were; to identify the types and formats of resources that incoming undergraduate students are aware of, to determine whether the incoming undergraduates are aware of search strategies for both print and electronic/online resources, to determine whether incoming undergraduate students possess basic information technology skills, to find out whether incoming undergraduate students know information retrieval tools and their use, and to determine whether incoming students are aware of intellectual property and copyrighted materials and their ethical use. The study adopted a quantitative approach and used the case study research method. The study targeted first year incoming undergraduate students at the Catholic University of Eastern Africa for the academic year 2013/2014. 137 incoming undergraduate students participated in the study. Data was collected by using self-administered questionnaires. Quantitative data was coded and analysed by using Statistical Package for Social Science (SPSS). Qualitative data generated form open-ended questions was presented in narrative form under respective subheadings. The finding of the study observed that: (a) Incoming first-year students have limited knowledge of strategies used to search for information. (b) The incoming first-year undergraduate students at the Catholic university of Eastern Africa do possess computer skills in applications such as the use of the internet and its applications (e.g. social networking sites and the World Wide Web) as well as the word-processing applications such as (Microsoft Office and Microsoft Word) and statistical applications such as SPSS. (c) Majority of incoming undergraduate university students are not familiar with the various retrieval tools and their applications. (d) The incoming first-year undergraduate students are familiar with both electronic and printed information resources. (e) A significant number of students were not aware what constitutes primary resources and secondary sources. (f) Incoming first-year undergraduate students exhibited little knowledge of issues relating to intellectual property rights and copyright. Several recommendations have been made based on the findings of the study. One of the recommendations is that the university library mandated with offering information literacy instruction to incoming students should adopt several incentives aimed at encouraging the students to attend library orientation. Another recommendation is to integrate the information literacy training with the normal university curriculum to become a credit-earning course for all incoming students. The university library should also carry out a needs assessment on information literacy training to help determine the existing gaps in the current information literacy programme. The programme should also be tailored to help in emerging issues such electronic plagiarism of information resources. The study further recommends a longitudinal study to determine whether students joining the university are able to gain information literacy skills over a period of time. / Information Science
