In Small Teaching: Everyday Lessons from the Science of Learning, James Lang uses research on how we learn to provide guidance for small changes that instructors can make in order to support student learning. This workshop will provide an overview of the Small Teaching approach and consider how instructors can use this approach to help students develop key understandings and skills related to research and information literacy. The presentation will use Small Teaching to highlight activities and strategies that instructors can incorporate into their classes that do not require a significant amount of time or a major course redesign.  This workshop is intended for course instructors, graduate teaching associates, instructional support staff, and librarians at Ohio State. Participants from other institutions are also welcome to attend. 

For participants associated with Ohio State, participation counts as credit toward the Teaching Information Literacy Endorsement from the Drake Institute for Teaching and Learning.
