Instructional support

Workshops, activities, and assignments for your courses

Subject librarians provide workshops, online learning activities, and assignments that are specifically tailored to the needs of individual Concordia faculty and their courses. For example, workshops can include hands-on instruction in the use of search tools in a specific discipline or discussions of the critical evaluation of information sources. Assignments or activities can include exercises or tasks that reinforce concepts covered in workshops or that enrich research or critical inquiry skills being taught in the course overall.

Contact your subject librarian

To arrange for a workshop or activity, or to discuss other possible collaborations, contact your subject librarian.

Librarians are very open to collaboration for the benefit of your students and welcome conversations around your requirements. It is helpful if you include teaching materials such as your syllabus and major assignments in your communications, as these are likely to indicate the information needs and expectations that you have of your students.

Note that a minimum of two weeks before the delivery of a workshop or activity may be required in order to tailor the offering to your students’ needs.
