- W313458881 abstract "Abstract Collaboration between library and faculty of an undergraduate academic institution can be beneficial for business students. This article discusses experiences of a business librarian and business faculty member who team-taught a course in business research. It covers some of content and applications of that material in developing students' knowledge and skills in Information Literacy, and includes a limited list of search engines used and a short list of required outside readings. Background The importance of critical thinking skills in undergraduate library experience has been well documented. One popular mode of evaluating critical thinking ability in business schools is to require a student research paper analyzing a company or industry. At Villa Julie College, a small comprehensive college in Maryland, business faculty have developed good working relationships with their librarians, and manage to do a creditable job of incorporating research assignments into course design plans. When students first arrive on campus, they are typically given a brief orientation to library and its resources, ranging from print materials to electronic. Students often then receive a library instruction session later in their schooling when they are given a research paper assignment. Since a single session may prove to be insufficient for students, library staff may spend considerable individual time with students as they struggle with assignment, and there may be some disconnection between what faculty member expects and what they receive. An alternative model in which collaboration between faculty member and business librarian extends to team-teaching an entire course on research affords a number of advantages: 1) it removes onus from faculty member to spend hours updating his or her skills in business research, since this responsibility resides with business librarian; 2) faculty member can step into role of coach as students work on improving their research and critical thinking skills in context of course subject matter; 3) critical thinking and research skills are reinforced throughout undergraduate experience; and 4) students learn valuable skills that they can take with them into their first professional career experience. The Aim of Course At Villa Julie College, one of general Business program foci is on development of research skills, encouraging students to learn where to find information in proprietary databases and generic Internet sites when they need to analyze a corporation. Electronic Research and Report Writing, a course developed in late 1980s, was designed to teach students to use electronic and print sources specifically for business research. Initially, database services such as Dow Jones and DIALOG systems were used in course. Over years, as Internet grew and as students entered with more and more computer skills, course has metamorphosed into one that increases students' awareness of available Internet sources as well as subscription databases, such as Lexis-Nexis and Ebsco, as it develops their critical thinking skills. Students learn more than a set of technical computing skills: they learn the set of skills needed to find, retrieve, analyze, and use information, which is definition of Information Literacy adopted by Association of College and Research Libraries [http://www.csusm.edu/acrl/il/intro/newil.html]. Knowledge and skills learned and used here are reiterated and applied in program's capstone course, in which teams of students analyze corporations and present their findings in an open forum. At Villa Julie, same business faculty who co-authored this paper teaches capstone (Senior Research). According to capstone syllabus, students reaffirm their confidence in knowledge and skills that they have gained during their matriculation. …" @default.
