Clickers
Use clickers to make lectures more interactive. Students are able to anonymously give their answers to questions and give feedback.
Zoom polls and breakout rooms also allow for interactivity.
Instruction
My job involves teaching classes to students to help them locate information for their class assignments. I prepare library guides with detailed instructions to assist them. We help students and faculty use new technologies, such as reference management software. We make office calls to faculty and staff in their campus offices.
Here are some examples of guides librarians create:
