Synopsis

The world of scholarly research is uncharted territory for undergrads, but with the right approach you can quickly get them up to speed.

• a variety of mix-and-match tools and activities that can be easily adapted for one-shots;
• concepts that are grounded in the ACRL Framework;
• topics that include the infrastructure that supports the scholarly research process;
• warm-ups using the lingo of favorite hobbies to launch a discussion of scholarship terminology;
