    Intentional failure and Rhianna's tattoo as pedagogy
    (Elsevier, 2022-07-05) Sinnott, Bria; Albert S. Cook Library
    Academic teaching librarians are often classroom visitors, with limited time to build relationships with students and teach them something useful. To maximize impact, librarians commonly deploy a canned search to demonstrate information seeking strategies. Demonstrating instant perfection is a detriment to student learning that reinforces classroom power inequities and portrays an unrealistic expectation of reallife searching and research. This column invites teaching librarians to instead demonstrate failure in classroom instruction as a way to bolster student confidence, experiential learning and mutual trust.

    Memes and the art of literacy maintenance
    (2021-03-31) Carpenter, Beth; Sinnott, Bria
    Memes are powerful social media tools, but also powerful information literacy artifacts. Through theory and practice, memes have an important place in how we understand the way our students are thinking, how we can envision the future of information literacy, and how we can have some fun in the process.
