Using Ref. Desk Referral Form in Class Lectures
I decided to use the Reference Desk Referral Form as a handout for a few class lectures (ENG 2100, SOC 4900, ANT 3085). Instead of giving students a handout listing databases and etc., I thought they could write down the database names and what they are used for as a reinforcement technique. Also, I found explaining the handout and how to use it has helped with demonstrating the research process. It was encouraging to see the students use the keywords grid while doing a class exercise and on their own during the hands-on time. I received positive feedback about the form from instructors as well. One even asked if she could have an electronic version so she could use it for future classes.
