| contents | Looping: How It Can Work in Higher Education Hooks, James D. Corbett, Frank, Jr. Librarians Looping (Teachers) Grouping (Instructional Purposes) Graduate Students Graduate Study Library Instruction Information Literacy University librarians possess specialized knowledge and have the potential to positively affect how students, especially graduate students, can better understand the research process. "NEERO's primary objectives are to improve educational programs and supervisory practices; provide a stimulating, supportive and friendly forum for scholarly presentations; identify and disseminate successful educational practices; and foster skill development in research and evaluation methodologies." This paper describes a unique form of collaboration at the graduate education level in a medium-size university. Looping, or multi-year teaching, is a practice of allowing students and teachers to remain together for two or more years. Looping is generally associated with elementary education, but in this project, the authors describe how the looping concept has been applied to a graduate education cohort. The university librarian rather than the professors of record move with the graduate cohort over a two-year course of study. Improved information literacy concerns and benefits to graduate students are presented. |
