We’re proud to report that the Information Literacy Modules are being used in courses and programs across the university! Since the initial release of the modules in June 2008 to April 30, 2011, the modules have been used by 184 faculty members in 176 unique courses or programs. There have been 1520 instances created (or instructor-assigned versions) that have been accessed by 12,069 (unduplicated) students who have completed 47,215 assessments (includes multiple module topics) with an average score of 88.04%.

The modules are being used both in undergraduate and graduate courses. Interviews with frequent users of the modules indicate that faculty use the modules as individual assignments, as part of a larger assignment, as extra credit, or as an optional resource for students.

As always, please let us know if we can answer any questions regarding the modules!
