150a: LIBS Information Literacy and Research Methods University of Maryland Asian Division Spring Session 2, 2009 Saturday, 28 March 0900-1300 and Saturday, 11 April 0900-1300 Iwakuni Instructor: Dr. Duane Vorhees E-mail: duanev@hotmail.com Before the First Class Session: Make sure you have received your Username and Password. You will need both in order to access the online classroom, where most of the work for the course must be completed. You should receive your Username and Password by email from Maryland about a week before the class begins. The Subject line of the email will probably read something like "Login Information for [your name]." If you don't receive your username/password, contact the Asian Division immediately at: tycho@asia.umuc.ed or call DSN 225-3696. You can also email webtychosupport@umuc.edu seven days a week and 24 hours a day, or call 1-800-807-4862. (In the past, I've found this service faster than going through the Asian Division.) Laptops: If you have a personal laptop, please bring it to class with you. Course Description: An introduction to the research process and methods for retrieving information in a library or through online sources. Development of a research topic and the creation of effective strategies for finding relevant information are discussed and practiced.
