Tutorials & Other Resources
There are several online tutorials that are helpful in teaching information literacy skills.
1. TIP (Tutorial for Information Power)
The goal of the tutorial is to identify and locate the various types and
formats of information resources necessary to meet an information need, the
development of search techniques, and the proper evaluation of the information found.
Instructions for completing the tutorial can be accessed TIP Instructions.
The tutorial can be accessed at TIP.
2. Information literacy course on Blackboard
These two modules were created to help the faculty with integrating information literacy
skills into their classes and to help the students become familiar with the libraries of
Delaware Tech. They show how to select, use and evaluate resources, databases and services
offered by the College libraries.
3. Copyright Tutorial
The University of Texas created a crash course on copyright. It focuses on how ownership of
copyrighted material works, fair use, and when and how to get permission to use someone else's
materials. There is also a test that students can take at the end of the tutorial.
