- Rebecca Knuth: LJ Teaching Award 2009 Berry, John N., III Information Science Education Recognition (Achievement) Profiles Awards Teacher Competencies College Faculty Library Education Teaching Methods Teaching Experience Course Descriptions Intellectual Freedom Global Approach This article profiles Rebecca Knuth, winner of the LJ Teaching Award for 2009. The way she plans a class she's teaching illustrates why she was nominated by her students and won the award. The award, which comes with a $5000 honorarium and a celebration at the American Library Association (ALA) Midwinter Meeting, is sponsored by ProQuest. For Knuth, a tenured professor in the Library and Information Science Program at the University of Hawai'i, Manoa (UHM), building a course and its syllabus is a lot like writing a book. The key point of Knuth's method is to have students understand and believe that what they're doing and what the program is teaching is important.
