Programs Aplenty using LibWizard Tutorials
Kayla Harris and Katy Kelly, University of Dayton
The Library at the University of Dayton had incredible virtual programming success during the 2020-2021 academic year with trendy information literacy topics and interactive content related to history, archives, special collections, art, and even a library tour. Most of the 8 LibWizard programs this academic year, were available to students for 30 days or less, had over 7221 total participants. Student feedback showed positive engagement with the module-based learning compared to other programs available. One student even said, "I LOVE the format of the library modules, so user-friendly and easy to follow!" This presentation will look at ideas and best practices for using LibWizard Tutorials for co-curricular learning modules incorporating our experiences and student feedback.
