Developing an assessment plan for information literacy learning outcomes: Process and planning

Abstract

The introduction of the ACRL Framework for Information Literacy for Higher Education provided an opportunity for libraries to revisit student learning and instruction practices. At the University of Northern Colorado Libraries, we embarked on a process of revising our shared student learning outcomes (SLOs) for all 100-level information literacy credit courses. The credit courses, taught by librarians, are offered in conjunction with programs on campus, like the Honors program and Center for Human Enrichment, or as a major requirement for Criminal Justice, History or Audiology and Speech Language majors.
