Information literacy, June 1, UD Faculty Showcase
Date: Wednesday, June 1
Time: 10:20 a.m. – 12 noon
Location: 208 Gore Hall
Supplemental materials:
SFI2016: Information Literacy and Metaliteracy Toolkit
How can an oral history project help students tackle the contextual nature of authority? How does the creation of broadsides based upon an historical collection help students examine how the format in which information is delivered impacts the way it is received? What unique opportunities to examine audience does the creation of a video present to students? Would the experience of creating a data-layered city map increase students’ ability to analyze aspects of inequality along lines of race and class?
This workshop will provide some insight into these questions by highlighting innovative assignments which challenge students to critically engage with information by placing students in the role of creator.
The workshop will feature four lightning talks by faculty members and librarians that will detail these student projects. Following the lightning talks, participants will have the opportunity to engage in a cross-disciplinary discussion of the challenges inherent in fostering information literacy among students and ideas for taking a metaliteracy-inspired approach to these challenges.

Date: Wednesday, June 1
Time: 10:20 a.m. – 12 noon, second of three presentations at this time
Location: 104 Gore Hall
With recent technology, student physical activity can be recorded, automatically updated to a database, and made available as a resource for teaching, research, and health services. The objective of this pilot/feasibility study, to be completed at the end of the Spring 2016 semester, is to create a resource for engaged, experiential learning that concurrently benefits student wellness.
At the beginning of Fall 2015, Fitbit® Zip™ monitors were distributed to 150 students, including the 25 students in Research Methods (KAAP 400). This course introduces students to research on health and physical activity, research design, statistical analyses, and scientific writing. The physical activity database served as a resource for in-class exercises and assignments. The subsequent Spring 2016 semester of Research Methods served as a control group, with students using the physical activity database but not contributing to it with their own activity.
The efficacy of this project as a teaching tool will be evaluated through comparisons of class evaluations, custom surveys, and instructor evaluation. The data from this study will determine the feasibility and potential efficacy of our approach. We ambitiously envision a scenario where UD distributes activity monitors to all students upon their arrival, recording activity throughout their student experience and beyond. These data will then be made available for teaching and research across disciplines so that nearly all students interact with the database.

The reliance on end-of-year student evaluations of teachers has long been lamented. Even teachers with high scores don’t believe that end-of-semester questionnaires often get deeply to the heart of what and how students learn. The delayed and summative nature of these year-end evaluations often fail to improve teaching in meaningful and immediate ways. We will report on our pilot program that uses a quick in-class student survey whose results are made immediately visible with the purpose of engendering a full discussion between students and the observer (a peer teacher from the program). Instructors can then make immediate use of the student feedback and assess the effects of the changes they make to their classrooms. We will discuss ways to improve teaching by using similar formative assessment in single classrooms, program-, or department-wide.

June 1, UD Faculty Showcase
Date: Wednesday, June 1
Time: 1:00 p.m. – 2:00 p.m., second presentation at this time
Location: 104 Gore Hall
The goal of this project is to incorporate more active learning and “hands-on” applications into the undergraduate experience. This is a difficult task especially in relatively large classes. This session will briefly chronicle an ongoing project aimed at incorporating “hands-on” laboratory experiences into pre-existing traditional lecture-based courses. In this case, specific examples relate to interactive brain labs in psychology and neuroscience courses, but a similar template could be adopted for any field. Live demonstrations and student feedback will be provided. Logistical considerations associated with funding, resources, class size, and student engagement will also be discussed.

With recent technology in education, such as learning management systems (LMSs), a large amount of data about learning, learners and learning contexts are being generated. In particular, LMSs collect a large amount of user clickstream data, which indicate users’ detailed activities, such as completing an online quiz, submitting an assignment, and participating in a discussion. Clickstream data often have various proprietary formats and different levels of granularity, which poses significant challenges to related learning data processing, modeling and analysis. In this project, we propose a process mining analysis framework to mine learning clickstream data from learning and teaching process perspective to provide insights on various learning and teaching behavior. Based on the mining results, we aim to provide a number of guidelines and best practices for improving learning and teaching using our LMS at the University of Delaware.
