Under a continuing partnership between the UHH Library and English Department, a design for a 4-week mini-course of library instruction is proposed using Canvas LMS. Embedded within students’ first year composition course and supporting the required research paper, this mini-course consists of 4-modules of online content structured around weekly synchronous online class sessions with a librarian for demonstration of resources and class activities via Zoom video conferencing. Course content is focused on the access and evaluation of online resources including strategies for searching, collecting and integrating scholarly content into writing assignments.
