Academic Librarians as Teachers and Faculty Developers: Exploring the Potential of the "Teach the Teachers" Model of Information Literacy
Jane Hammons
College & Research Libraries, v85 n3 p378-398 2024
Proponents of the "teach the teachers" approach to information literacy, in which librarians concentrate on teaching the faculty to teach information literacy, have argued that it could potentially result in the increased integration of information literacy into the curriculum. However, more discussion of this model as a path forward for information literacy is needed. This essay explores the potential of the faculty-focused approach to information literacy through a critical analysis of the literature on librarians' experiences as teachers and faculty developers. Through this exploration, the essay provides valuable insight into the ongoing conversations about the future of information literacy instruction.
