  • Mortal or Moodle? A Comparison of In-Person vs. Online Information Literacy Instruction Gorman, Emily F. Staley, Catherine Educational Technology Technology Uses in Education Teaching Methods Research Skills Student Attitudes Undergraduate Students Librarians Integrated Learning Systems Conventional Instruction Grades (Scholastic) Preferences Skill Development Self Esteem Speech Language Pathology Library Instruction The purpose of this study was to evaluate the efficacy of online and in-person instructional methods for teaching research skills, as well as to determine student preferences for each method. Undergraduate students received librarian-led research skills instruction either through an online course management system or in person at the library. Students were surveyed about their experience and format preference, and their grades on a subsequent literature review assignment were collected. The online group's scores were significantly (p = 0.002) higher, and a majority of eligible participants stated a preference for the online format. Many of the students in both groups reported increased skills and confidence in conducting speech-language-hearing science research following the library instruction. The results of this study support the possibility that online instruction may be more effective than in-person for improving performance on a literature review assignment and is preferred by on-campus students for learning information literacy skills.
