Curriculum Mapping Examples: Montgomery College Library Tutorials & Credo Instruct Content
The MC Library’s information literacy content allows you to easily pull learning objects directly into your Blackboard course to provide your students
with crucial support in building the information literacy skills they need to be successful with academic assignments. We are offering both the
librarian-created tutorials and quizzes you are used to and a new series of tutorials and videos from Credo Instruct. You will be able to access all of
these resources from the Library Tutorials, Videos, and Quizzes for Faculty link on the left menu of any Blackboard course site.
This document is intended as an example of how the available tutorials and videos could be mapped to the information literacy learning
outcomes for a selection of courses. You are welcome to include this content in your courses in any way that you see fit. Need assistance? Visit the
Library Tutorials, Videos, and Quizzes page to see all available content, instructions, and contact information.
