Dear Immersion participants,
Thank you for registering for the ACRL Immersion program-at-Cornell. The program will take place May 21-24, 2012, in the Stern Conference Room, 160 Mann Library.
This program will give CUL instructors' the opportunity to enhance their teaching skills, build their knowledge of assessment, and see how their instruction fits into the larger context of a CUL information literacy program. This is the first time that ACRL has customized its Immersion program for an institution, and the faculty leading the program (see bios , below need to attach) are very excited about the opportunity.
...
- ACRL will extend an invitation to every participant to join Moodle (course management system, similar to Blackboard) where pre-Immersion readings and other materials ? will be posted.;
- The Information Literacy Taskforce will set up a meeting to share will share the goals and objectives for CUL's Information Literacy Program;
- PSEC Instruction will send out a pre-Immersion survey where we will invite you to share your hopes and goals for Immersion.;
- A final schedule for the Immersion program will be sent to you when it is finalized in early May.
If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to contact a member of PSEC Instruction:
