Abstract The purpose of this case study was to ascertain if college students’ information literacy improves through a faculty-librarian collaboration involving a session of library instruction as part of a regular political science course. The authors conducted two surveys to determine if in-person library instruction increases students’ research abilities. The authors surveyed political science faculty to discover their attitudes toward library research instruction. They also surveyed political science students to gauge their opinions on the value of library instruction and to see if there is a connection between their research proficiencies and instruction by a librarian. Through this case study, the authors found that such instruction does improve information literacy. The researchers concluded that for faculty and colleges interested in improving information literacy skills in undergraduate political science students, such library instruction is helpful towards that goal.

反复教学的成功：着眼于师生合作以提高政治学教育中的信息素养

摘要本案例研究的目的是通过与图书馆员的合作来确定大学生的信息素养是否得到改善，这种合作涉及将图书馆教学作为常规政治学课程的一部分。作者进行了两次调查，以确定面对面的图书馆教学是否能提高学生的研究能力。作者对政治学系教师进行了调查，以发现他们对图书馆研究指导的态度。他们还对政治学专业的学生进行了调查，以评估他们对图书馆教学价值的看法，并查看他们的研究能力与图书馆员的教学之间是否存在联系。通过这个案例研究，作者发现这种指导确实提高了信息素养。
