Preparing English-Language Learners for the American Academy: New and Evolving Practices in Course-Integrated Information Literacy in International Student Programming
Comments
The VCU Libraries has created a partnership with the university’s English Language Program to provide strategically outreach and support to international English language learners for the rigors of an American university. Over the past year, the Libraries has been learning more about the ELP curriculum, and is working to integrate appropriate information literacy skills into these classes. This poster will discuss the project’s progress, challenges, and successes, and the knowledge gained through building this new relationship.
