How Two Librarians became co-instructors in a First Year Course, at Ontario Library Association 2015 conference, Friday, February 13, 2015

Authors: Shannon Gordon, Kate Mercer

Abstract

In Spring 2014, two librarians co-instructed an undergraduate Pharmacy course at the University of Waterloo. Providing students with the skills to access medical/drug information, this course gave students the skills to critically appraise literature to support an evidence-based patient care model. This poster shares their experience co-instructing a required course co-taught with the School of Pharmacy’s Director, an expert in critical appraisal.
