- A Content Analysis of Strategies and Tactics Observed among MLIS Students in an Online Searching Course Ondrusek, Anita L. Ren, Xiaoai Yang, Changwoo Content Analysis Learning Strategies Masters Programs Graduate Students Library Education Online Searching State Universities Coding Assignments Information Retrieval Student Evaluation Data Analysis Qualitative Research Search Strategies Online searching is a skill that all professional programs educating librarians consider an essential part of their curricula. However, investigations of online searching behavior have centered almost exclusively on end users, and there have been no recent formal studies that explore the online searching behaviors of MLIS students. In this study, the researchers conducted a qualitative content analysis by coding documents collected from assignments in an MLIS online searching course. The analysis used typologies derived from previous research that identified specific strategies and tactics employed in information retrieval. Taken as a whole, the results suggested that there are signposts instructors can expect to encounter when evaluating strategies and tactics in online searching assignments. The typologies provided the vocabulary needed to classify those strategies and tactics--a key ingredient for future studies of online searching performance.
