Research assignments are a trademark of higher education and a crucial aspect of teaching. As you prepare your course materials for the upcoming fall semester, it is a great time to review or consider developing your research assignments for maximum student success. This workshop will provide participants with best practices on how to design an effective research assignment that incorporates library and special collections holdings and support services. The workshop will be co-hosted by KSU CETL, University Libraries, Special Collections, and the Bentley Rare Book Museum. Participants will learn how to:

-Apply TILT practices to their research assignment design, including scaffolded information retrieval processes

-Incorporate current information source terminology into their assignments

-Explore and familiarize themselves with current KSU Library and Special Collections holdings

-Develop assignment requirements that incorporate KSU Library and Special Collections holdings and support services to ensure greater student success
