Abstract

abstract:In early 2020, the COVID-19 pandemic drastically changed the lives of college students across the United States. These students, many of whom had never taken an online class prior to the pandemic, had to quickly adapt to the virtual learning environment and continue their studies during a time of great uncertainty. At the same time, many professors were teaching online for the first time, altering their instructional approaches to meet the needs of students. Both students and faculty faced immense stress caused by the public health crisis, economic distress, political turmoil, and racial injustice plaguing our nation during this time.This article explores the pedagogy of teaching during a pandemic, with an emphasis on compassionate teaching. It identifies the educational barriers that college students faced with the rapid shift to online learning and considers how their experiences might provide insights for librarians. The recommendations for library practice include selecting a small number of essential learning outcomes for each instruction session, supplementing in-person or synchronous online sessions with asynchronous materials, and establishing a sense of community within the classroom. In addition to these suggestions, the author shares a narrative of her experiences incorporating compassionate pedagogy into online library instruction.
富有同情心的IL教学方法:我们可以从COVID-19大流行中学到什么
2020年初,新冠肺炎大流行彻底改变了美国大学生的生活。这些学生中有许多人在大流行之前从未上过在线课程,他们必须迅速适应虚拟学习环境,并在充满不确定性的时期继续学习。与此同时,许多教授第一次进行在线教学,改变了他们的教学方法,以满足学生的需求。在这段时间里,学生和教师都面临着公共卫生危机、经济困境、政治动荡和种族不公正所带来的巨大压力。本文探讨了大流行期间的教学方法,重点是富有同情心的教学。它确定了大学生在快速转向在线学习时面临的教育障碍,并考虑了他们的经历如何为图书馆员提供见解。图书馆实践的建议包括为每个教学环节选择少量的基本学习成果,用异步材料补充面对面或同步在线课程,并在课堂内建立社区意识。除了这些建议,作者还分享了她将同情心教学法融入在线图书馆教学的经历。
