Ferris State University Library for Information, Technology and Education (FLITE).

PILOT

 

 


Our online tutorial introduces students to basic concepts of information literacy and how they apply to some typical undergraduate level assignments. These basic concepts can also be successfully applied to more complex research needs.

We have created two versions; the first (FULL PILOT) is a highly-interactive format with flash movies and games, and the second (PILOT LITE), a less-interactive version designed to accommodate slower modem, off-campus access.

After successfully completing this three module tutorial,
students should be able to:

  • locate and use major Library facilities and services;
  • select information sources appropriate for a particular need;
  • use standard research techniques to search electronic databases;
  • use the library catalog to find items owned by the library;
  • use a general library database, such as General OneFile, to identify articles;
  • locate copies of articles;
  • find resources on the World Wide Web;
  • begin learning to critically evaluate resources
