What is a scholarly source? What is peer review? What is a literature review? In many ways, learning to be an effective information researcher requires students to learn another language. There are many terms that instructors regularly incorporate into their instructions for research or inquiry-based assignments that may be unfamiliar to students. In addition, the meaning of some terms can vary across disciplines. Or, there may be terms that have an “everyday” meaning and a different meaning within the context of research. This free virtual workshop will focus on highlighting key academic jargon related to the research process. Participants will also learn about strategies and resources that will help to clarifying key terms and concepts for students.

For those affiliated with Ohio State, this workshop counts as credit toward the Teaching Information Literacy endorsement from the Drake Institute for Teaching and Learning.
