- Developing Information Fluency in Introductory Biology Students in the Context of an Investigative Laboratory Lindquester, Gary J. Burks, Romi L. Jaslow, Carolyn R. Independent Study Scientific Methodology Science Laboratories Biology Science Instruction Undergraduate Study College Science Access to Information Library Services Library Materials Self Esteem Educational Technology Computer Uses in Education Information Literacy Critical Thinking Thinking Skills Students of biology must learn the scientific method for generating information in the field. Concurrently, they should learn how information is reported and accessed. We developed a progressive set of exercises for the undergraduate introductory biology laboratory that combine these objectives. Pre- and postassessments of approximately 100 students suggest that increases occurred, some statistically significant, in the number of students using various library-related resources, in the numbers and confidence level of students using various technologies, and in the numbers and confidence levels of students involved in various activities related to the scientific method. Following this course, students should be better prepared for more advanced and independent study. (Contains 5 tables and 8 figures.)
