               We don’t know…
                   o   how to search.
                   o   what search terms to use for NE.
               Nobody has written anything on this
               We are getting all this information…
                How many can we use?
               There’s too much stuff published…
                Which ones do we reference?
               Spending time on this isn’t going to
                help us learn nursing.
               I’ve got a lot other things to do.

I Enjoyed a Mini-Talk about using library resources
           at the beginning of each class
THE LISTEN

   My literature searching skills have improved after
researching & finding relevant information for my topic
THE LISTEN
PROJECT


    Prior to class, I had used a Wiki




                                N=63
THE LISTEN
  PROJECT


Wiki was a useful technology in NE assignment
THE LISTEN
PROJECT
Using a wiki for class had a positive effect on my
    learning and engagement in the course
THE LISTEN
    PROJECT

  Having a faculty member/instructor/graduate teaching assistant
review my assignment on the wiki before due date was helpful to me
THE LISTEN
  PROJECT

The whole process of researching & finding relevant information
made me feel more competent to search for quality information
THE LISTEN
    PROJECT
                 If I were designing the course
                   I would be sure to keep…

    Library expert for teaching/help - a valuable resource (83%)

    The information that is provided on how to search the Web and the
     library’s resources (76%)

    Library skills & information specific to the UTHSC Library (76%)

    Guest speakers who came to talk on issues. They were helpful &
     provided relevant information that was useful for all courses.
     Examples: Ms. Wu, Ms. Thorne, Clinical Laboratory Science Faculty
     and Staff (75%)

     Compared to when I entered the program,
I feel more prepared & can be more successful in…

What did students say about the librarian?
 Mini-lectures was fantastic and extremely beneficial for our
  wiki assignments!
 The librarian was very helpful for research.
 Library staff and Mona Patterson were very helpful with the
  WIKI research.
 Involvement of librarian was very useful and effective in
  learning about necessary resources, I enjoyed it very much.
 I think introducing a librarian to the course was helpful in
  giving the accurate impression that these professionals are
  accessible, helpful and happy to help.
 The librarian was absolutely wonderful.
THE LISTEN
     PROJECT


  What did students say about the Wiki?
 The wiki was a good assignment but I wish we had more guidance about it at
  the beginning of the semester instead of so close to due date.

 I do think working on a wiki page (with more lessons perhaps in formatting) is
  valuable because as future nurses/researchers we can communicate
  effectively and quickly with colleagues.

 I am glad to have had this experience with using a wiki because I like learning
  how to do new things with technology, and you never know when a skill like
  this might be just what you need later on.

 The almost instant feedback for the wiki was very helpful.

 I would suggest requiring a minimum # of paragraphs or sources for
  the WIKI.
THE LISTEN
 PROJECT


What did students say? Continued
 I see the value of it (wiki) as a communication tool & for internal
  communication.

 I like the concept of reading others students opinions & article
  findings, however, I don't think a wiki is necessarily the best way to go
  about doing it.

 I was glad I got a chance to use the wiki. I had never even heard of a
  wiki page before this class.

 My biggest frustration with the wiki site was fear that someone else
  was going to make an unintentional change to the information that I had
  listed on the site and I wouldn't catch it.

 The wiki assignment was very helpful. It quot;forcedquot; me to learn how to
  evaluate websites & articles effectively & it allowed me to learn
  valuable information about the medical field & medical errors.
THE LISTEN
    PROJECT


                     Conclusions
Researching NE helped improve students:
   IT and IL attitudes, skills, and knowledge.
   Library research skills.
   Knowledge of using information the professional way.
   IT and IL skills for life-long learning.

Online collaboration using wiki:
 Challenged Net Gen students out of their comfort zone.
 Presented potential opportunities & skills useful for future
  nursing roles.
 Provided opportunities for students to demonstrate creativity &
  innovation.

 PROJECT


              Future Directions
Integration of LISTEN* Project modules &
      Brief Online Learning Tutorials
              into the course

  • 13. THE LISTEN PROJECT Student Collaboration = Areas 1+2+3  Students were placed in groups of 2-3 students.  Each student had an assigned area & wiki page.  Each group had an assigned NE topic.  Group NE wiki pages facilitated collaboration.  Group NE final project presentations challenged their creativity.
  • 14. THE LISTEN PROJECT Challenges, Frustration, & Overwhelming  We don’t know… o how to search. o what search terms to use for NE.  Nobody has written anything on this  We are getting all this information… How many can we use?  There’s too much stuff published… Which ones do we reference?  Spending time on this isn’t going to help us learn nursing.  I’ve got a lot other things to do.  I often felt like I was on a wild goose chase.
  • 15. THE LISTEN PROJECT Health Sciences Librarian’s Take  Mini-talks/lectures  One-on-one consultations  After class assistance  NE resource wiki
  • 16. THE LISTEN PROJECT Searching for Information  Google  Google Scholar  Wikipedia  PubMed  CINAHL@EBSCOhost  Blogs  Listservs  Other people’s synthesis about the topic
  • 17. THE LISTEN PROJECT Qualifying Information  Time with librarian setting up & validating search strategies.  Reviewed criteria & evaluated Web sites.  Used Wikipedia appropriately.  Talked with the faculty member.  Learned about journal quality.  Special search session with nursing PhD student.
  • 18. THE LISTEN PROJECT InfoLit Survey Results: Skills for Conducting Health Research 0 (completely lacking) 10 (excellent)
  • 19. THE LISTEN PROJECT InfoLit Survey Results: Judging Quality of Health Information 0 (completely lacking) 10 (excellent)
  • 20. THE LISTEN PROJECT InfoLit Survey Results: Finding Quality Information 0 (completely lacking) 10 (excellent) Rate your assessment of your skills in finding high quality information on a specific health topic
  • 21. THE LISTEN PROJECT I Enjoyed a Mini-Talk about using library resources at the beginning of each class
  • 22. THE LISTEN PROJECT My literature searching skills have improved after researching & finding relevant information for my topic
  • 23. THE LISTEN PROJECT Prior to class, I had used a Wiki N=63
  • 24. THE LISTEN PROJECT Wiki was a useful technology in NE assignment
  • 25. THE LISTEN PROJECT Using a wiki for class had a positive effect on my learning and engagement in the course
  • 26. THE LISTEN PROJECT Having a faculty member/instructor/graduate teaching assistant review my assignment on the wiki before due date was helpful to me
  • 27. THE LISTEN PROJECT The whole process of researching & finding relevant information made me feel more competent to search for quality information
  • 28. THE LISTEN PROJECT If I were designing the course I would be sure to keep…  Library expert for teaching/help - a valuable resource (83%)  The information that is provided on how to search the Web and the library’s resources (76%)  Library skills & information specific to the UTHSC Library (76%)  Guest speakers who came to talk on issues. They were helpful & provided relevant information that was useful for all courses. Examples: Ms. Wu, Ms. Thorne, Clinical Laboratory Science Faculty and Staff (75%)
  • 29. THE LISTEN PROJECT Compared to when I entered the program, I feel more prepared & can be more successful in…
  • 30. THE LISTEN PROJECT What did students say about the librarian?  Mini-lectures was fantastic and extremely beneficial for our wiki assignments!  The librarian was very helpful for research.  Library staff and Mona Patterson were very helpful with the WIKI research.  Involvement of librarian was very useful and effective in learning about necessary resources, I enjoyed it very much.  I think introducing a librarian to the course was helpful in giving the accurate impression that these professionals are accessible, helpful and happy to help.  The librarian was absolutely wonderful.
  • 31. THE LISTEN PROJECT What did students say about the Wiki?  The wiki was a good assignment but I wish we had more guidance about it at the beginning of the semester instead of so close to due date.  I do think working on a wiki page (with more lessons perhaps in formatting) is valuable because as future nurses/researchers we can communicate effectively and quickly with colleagues.  I am glad to have had this experience with using a wiki because I like learning how to do new things with technology, and you never know when a skill like this might be just what you need later on.  The almost instant feedback for the wiki was very helpful.  I would suggest requiring a minimum # of paragraphs or sources for the WIKI.
  • 32. THE LISTEN PROJECT What did students say? Continued  I see the value of it (wiki) as a communication tool & for internal communication.  I like the concept of reading others students opinions & article findings, however, I don't think a wiki is necessarily the best way to go about doing it.  I was glad I got a chance to use the wiki. I had never even heard of a wiki page before this class.  My biggest frustration with the wiki site was fear that someone else was going to make an unintentional change to the information that I had listed on the site and I wouldn't catch it.  The wiki assignment was very helpful. It quot;forcedquot; me to learn how to evaluate websites & articles effectively & it allowed me to learn valuable information about the medical field & medical errors.
  • 33. THE LISTEN PROJECT Conclusions Researching NE helped improve students:  IT and IL attitudes, skills, and knowledge.  Library research skills.  Knowledge of using information the professional way.  IT and IL skills for life-long learning. Online collaboration using wiki:  Challenged Net Gen students out of their comfort zone.  Presented potential opportunities & skills useful for future nursing roles.  Provided opportunities for students to demonstrate creativity & innovation.
