Amidst a competitive job market, a constantly evolving digital sphere of communication, and the many pressures (ecological, economic, and otherwise) facing students upon graduation, academic institutions are charged with the task of best preparing students to thrive. Embracing Change: Alternatives to Traditional Research Writing Assignments meets this challenge by inspiring information literacy instructors to consider their unique student populations and their corresponding needs; to be open-minded regarding resources available; and, above all, to be creative and nuanced in moving past written essays and reports toward assignments that better reflect student learning.
