  • Research@UWW: Discover the Possibilities
  • Scholarship as Conversation
  • Cut & Paste Doesn't Cut It: Using & Citing Sources
  • Anatomy of a Scholarly Article
  • Introductions to APA and MLA citation styles

We have also created tutorials covering concepts more suited to other courses:

  • Build Background Knowledge: Identifying Key Terms and Concepts
  • Identify Source Types
  • Understand the Peer Review Process
  • Identify Research Articles
  • Begin the Search: Selecting Discipline-specific Databases
  • Author Searching and Bibliographic Mining
  • Format Citations
  • Manage and Share References: Reference Managers

Individual or sets of tutorials can be completed by your students prior to library instruction to free up time for in-class interactive and critical thinking activities. Talk to us to find out would work best for you and your students.

Videos

The librarians have already created a wide variety of videos that are available to you and your students. These can easily be linked from or watched in Canvas. Talk to your liaison librarian about videos that might be useful for your students.

Course and Class Guides

Upon request, your liaison librarian can create an online guide designed around course content or research assignments. It could contain information relevant to your students, such as links to Research@UWW, databases, articles, and free online resources, as well as search tips, step-by-step processes, and details about services such as interlibrary loan.
