Asynchronous Literature Research Module for Undergraduate Engineering Research Program

Journal of Library & Information Services in Distance Learning, v18 n3-4 p62-89 2024
This case study presents the development of an asynchronous online module for an engineering undergraduate research program. It includes an overview of the development of the literature research module in Qualtrics and its transition to the campus LMS, Canvas. Assessment of student learning is described. The benefits to librarians of this mode of instruction are also discussed. While aligning with the growing body of literature on asynchronous library instruction, this study demonstrates application of that modality through innovative instruction for a STEM extra-curricular program. It provides insights for instruction librarians looking to transition to asynchronous teaching.
