Many academic librarians teach online and much of this instruction happens in a learning management system (LMS). We constrain ourselves to the structure of these systems and attempt to meet students where they are with content that addresses information literacy learning goals. But how exactly are we doing that? What does online pedagogy look like in today’s LMS? Most importantly, how can elements of active learning and critical pedagogy be infused into online classrooms?
This pecha kucha presentation will shine a spotlight on these questions in order to inspire conversations about possibilities regarding how librarians teach and *could be* teaching online. Attendees will see examples of what online information literacy instruction can look like in an LMS (Canvas most specifically), hear ideas for moving instruction beyond the LMS, and consider how to begin more effectively engaging students in learning that happens in front of a screen.
The presentation’s target audience will be librarians who teach fully online courses as well as those who engage with the LMS in more minimal ways.
