Group 3 (Nicholas Schleif, Abdullah A, Yue Wang), Topic: Course Guides
What are they?
Course guides are guides created specifically for class assignments. They are pages that have information that is relevant to the class. Also the course guides customized online library guides for your particular course or research assignment. They are prepared in consultation with you by your instruction librarian. You can select guides to reference resources in specific courses. This is an example of a course guide:
How to Use them.
After you've gone to the first page titled "Course Guides", there are many ways to navigate. You can search for a specific course such as CMST 212 , an instructor, a subject, or do a keyword search. Once you've found the right course, you click 'select a course' and it will bring you to the course guide. At the top of the page there is a Table of Contents with each sub-topic of information. For each sub-topic there are links that help you with the information. For example, under a sub-topic called Citing Sources there could be examples of each kind of cited source.
Why are they important?
It is easy and clear for students to find what kinds of courses are good for them, because guides are created specifically for class assignments. When we search course guides, it save our time and it shows students about refund information, course changes, instructor and subjects. For this class, course guides can contain information like research help, finding articles, citing sources, and information about the library. If a student is struggling with a topic, they can look up information about it in the course guide to understand it better. Course guides help students achieve the goal(s) of the class, which is the most important thing.
