Pedagogy:Professional Development

Introduction

The DLF Digital Pedagogy Resource Sharing and Professional Skills Development project formed following the DLF Digital Library Pedagogy group’s first two Twitter chats in early 2016. Group members were looking for opportunities to develop professional skills in teaching with and about digital libraries such as tutorials, webinars, and workshops.

Projects

The #DLFteach Toolkit 1.0 is an openly available, peer-reviewed collection of lesson plans and concrete instructional strategies developed by this subgroup and published in 2019.

The Environmental Scan details existing resources to aid digital library practitioners in finding and developing teaching skills and resources. Anyone can add additional resources to the appropriate appropriate tab on the spreadsheet.

The group also hosts office hours on the Digital Humanities Slack channel every Tuesday morning, 9:00–11:00 a.m. ET and Thursday afternoon, 1:00–3:00 p.m. ET. Find out more on the DLF blog.
