As navigating information and the research process have become increasingly complex and intertwined in political and social issues, this new course will connect students with FSU Libraries’ resources and services as well as provide a foundation for information literacy, research, and context for the vast information environment. Students will walk away with knowledge of library services and resources, how to utilize resources explored to support them academically as an FSU student and provide a foundation for research skills within the classroom and beyond.

Our mentor for our Engage 100 course will act as a liaison between ourselves and the students. We will introduce our mentor to the class as an advocate and peer for the students. They will give voice to student questions, concerns, recommendations and offer connection. Also, while instruction is occurring, the mentor may speak one on one with students who have questions or need assistance. From the first class onward, we will invite and encourage open communication with us and the class mentor. The mentor will establish a peer-to-peer connection with the students and be available to them at all times during each class session. For students, the mentor will listen, write down questions students have for us as well as recommendations on class topics. For us (the instructors), the mentor will provide feedback regarding instruction and how best to solicit participation, socialization and encourage interaction amongst the class as we get to know one another. If our mentor feels comfortable, they will be able to facilitate the library tour with the instructor and offer the student perspective on what library tech, services, resources should be highlighted along our tour route. Our mentor will take attendance, prep PowerPoints with information received from instructors, review class assignments for completeness, and monitor that we have received written responses from all students when written evaluations or assessments are given.
