Science · User Studies and Information Seeking Behaviour
An academic library introduces an Experiential Learning (EL) program for graduate students to improve their skills in searching complex online databases. Instead of only attending lectures or reading guides, students actively practice advanced search strategies, use filters and Boolean operators, and work on real research queries. Librarians want to evaluate the success of the program by observing how students' information seeking behavior changes over time. The impact on 'information seeking behavior' is best assessed by measuring students' shift from:
- 1Using personal handwritten notes for research to storing bibliographic citations manually
- 2Reading printed textbooks to relying solely on lecture-based slide decks
- 3Collaborative group discussions to solitary online browsing without external interaction
- 4Reliance on basic keyword searches and general websites to employing structured, advanced search queries and specialized academic databases✓
Correct answer
Reliance on basic keyword searches and general websites to employing structured, advanced search queries and specialized academic databases
