Exploring Freshman Composition Student Attitudes about Library Instruction Sessions and Workbooks: Two Studies.

Markman, Marsha C.; Leighton, Gordon B.

Research Strategies, v5 n3 p126-34 Sum 1987

College freshmen enrolled in English composition classes were polled to determine their attitudes toward two different methods of bibliographic instruction: the lecture-discussion practicum and the workbook. Analysis indicated that most students perceived the lecture-discussion to be the more successful instructional technique for both general and course researching needs. (5 references) (MES)
