“I wish I had learned this in first year!” is a comment that we often hear from students in classroom visits and research consultations.  While we love knowing that a particular research tool or strategy resonates with students, as Teaching & Learning librarians we want to provide as many opportunities as possible for students to build their skills early on at Brock.  Learning how to find and use information effectively takes time and practice but can enhance awareness of the variety of tools and approaches to research (with positive impacts on student achievement). 

This fall, we are excited to launch “Research Ready”, a workshop series designed to introduce students to a variety of topics in information, from A.I. strategies to Knowledge Justice.  Students can attend as many workshops as they wish, receiving Student Experience Record credit for individual workshops and a certificate for completing any four from the series.   

Students can learn more and register on ExperienceBU.
