I remember how I felt at this time last year, going through Cohort for the first time, and it was completely uncertain and like I was in way too deep. It&#8217;s helping me to embrace the uncertainly and trust the process.<\/p>\n<p>The gallery share at the second Face 2 Face offered invaluable insights for reflecting on my Action Plan question:\u00a0HMW\u00a0ensure that our Grade 9 students end the year feeling like more confident and competent researchers? If we in the library can reach every student during Grade 9 in a meaningful way, it will help set students up with the information literacy skills to be successful throughout high school and curtail problems with academic honesty, such plagiarism and the proper use of citation. Of course there are things that we already do that we will continue to, like collaborating with Grade 9 teachers on research assignments, but I would like to use my Action Plan as a way to investigate further options, including:<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_86\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-86\" style=\"width: 209px\" class=\"wp-caption alignright\"><a href=\"https:\/\/cohort21.com\/lauramustard\/files\/2016\/01\/research_skills_jigsaw.jpg\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-86\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-86\" src=\"https:\/\/cohort21.com\/lauramustard\/files\/2016\/01\/research_skills_jigsaw.jpg\" alt=\"Image source: https:\/\/www.sheffield.ac.uk\/library\/infolit\/research\" width=\"209\" height=\"250\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-86\" class=\"wp-caption-text\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.sheffield.ac.uk\/library\/infolit\/research\">https:\/\/www.sheffield.ac.uk\/library\/infolit\/research<\/a><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<ul>\n<li>a dedicated information literacy &#8220;course&#8221; run in conjunction with our student services and wellness office, LINCWell;<\/li>\n<li>providing flipped library resources to introduce key concepts and gather formative feedback;<\/li>\n<li>new ways of delivering content to make it more engaging and collaborative; and<\/li>\n<li>measuring student confidence and competence by collecting self-reported data.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Before the break our principal Martha Perry asked <a href=\"http:\/\/cohort21.com\/adamcaplan\/\">Adam<\/a>, <a href=\"http:\/\/cohort21.com\/clairehazzard\/\">Claire<\/a> and me to speak briefly about the Cohort 21 experience at a staff meeting. The presentation included our Action Plan ideas for the year and it resulted in a Grade 9 science teacher reaching out to me. We are meeting this week to discuss how I can help with research skills in her course. I&#8217;m excited to have so much momentum moving forward with my Action Plan and I&#8217;m looking forward to problem-solving and problematizing some of these ideas on Friday.
