Changing the Research Assignment Design Process: Supporting Instructors to Develop Equitable and Transparent Assignments Using TILT - Part 1

Research assignments, common across higher education, often require students to demonstrate their information literacy. Instructors may assume that students are prepared to meet the expectations for these assignments or feel unable to teach information literacy at the expense of disciplinary content. Hence, the ways of thinking and knowing related to information literacy can form a hidden curriculum. This session introduces the Transparency in Learning and Teaching (TILT) framework and models a workshop we have given to course instructors to help them develop transparent and equitable research assignments. Participants can use this model to consider developing their own programming for instructors.
