ACRL is hosting a three-part webinar series (registration / payment
required) on Thursday, November 2; Thursday, November 9; and Thursday,
November 16, 2023, about “Transforming Information Literacy Instruction
through the Lens of Our Instructional Identities
<https://elearning.ala.org/local/catalog/view/product.php?productid=1001>.”

Librarians across academic institutions grapple with their instructional
roles and responsibilities – sometimes alone, or in haphazard ways, or
through trial-and-error. Are there better, more effective ways to approach
our educational engagement with learners as well as our identities as
teachers? This webinar series proposes integrating transformative learning
theory – a way to understand how adults learn – and librarians’ concrete
experiences into our educational engagement approaches. Based on the three
volumes of the recent ACRL publication *Instructional Identities
and Information Literacy
<https://www.alastore.ala.org/content/instructional-identities-and-information-literacy-3-volume-set>,*
each
webinar will explore how we can meaningfully advance how we think about our
instructional work, learning as transformation, and our identities as
educators.

Complete details, including information on presenters and learning
outcomes, is available on the ACRL website
<https://elearning.ala.org/local/catalog/view/product.php?productid=1001>.
