Information Literacy Learning Motivation College Libraries Library Instruction Instructional Effectiveness Relevance (Education) Individualized Instruction Electronic Learning Tutorial Programs Internet Experimental Groups Control Groups College Students Given an unfamiliar audience, an undervalued skill, and a limited time to present, librarian information specialists need a prescriptive means to generate motivation to learn. Tailoring, more commonly used in health communications, could enhance perceived task attractiveness and relevancy. In a controlled trial, two groups were compared on the basis of exposure or non-exposure to a tailored lesson introduction prior to an online Website evaluation tutorial. The tailored introduction group reported significantly higher levels of task attractiveness before and after the tutorial; relevancy was significantly greater before, but not after the tutorial. Further research into tailoring is warranted. (Contains 5 tables and 6 figures.) |
