By tailoring services to the graduate student population, and encouraging them to take advantage of other services open to all on campus, the Library is able to meet their needs while simultaneously treating them as members of the larger academic community. Graduate students must quickly develop a number of new skills when they begin working at a higher academic level. The Library’s “Digital Dissertation” workshop series offers sessions on a wide range of research and technology topics. Offerings in recent semesters have included: “Making Posters with Illustrator and PowerPoint”, “Academic Research with Google”, “Conducting the Literature Review in the Social Sciences” and the highly popular “Using Word Effectively for Your Dissertation”. In addition, the centrally located Knowledge Navigation Center, a training-oriented computer lab, provides drop-in assistance on a wide variety of computer software. The Graduate Library also helps graduate students in their roles as instructors; Library instructors have worked with other campus groups to provide training and orientation for new Graduate Student Instructors (GSIs). Often, librarians help GSIs create assignments, or teach information-literacy or technologyinstruction sessions to their classes. This paper will review the current suite of training and support opportunities at the Graduate Library and explain the history of and motivations behind the various programs. It will also discuss tips and ideas for implementing a similar program.","PeriodicalId":131408,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the 34th annual ACM SIGUCCS fall conference: expanding the boundaries","volume":"209 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2006-11-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"115735507","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The CITES Help Desk is a constantly changing environment and keeping our students up to date is a challenge. We want a fun way to reinforce our training program, provide new information on existing services, and foster better teamwork among our staff. To solve this dilemma, the Help Desk develops web-based learning games. Our presentation will showcase the development of these games and highlight the lessons learned from two divergent types of games.The Dockside Mystery was played in late 2005 and featured a fully integrated storyline with interactive characters, 3D environments, and an automated testing and grading system. Prizes were awarded to the students who earned a top score. With our spring 2006 game, Stump the Chump, we took a dissimilar approach. Players relied on their peers to answer work and non-work related quiz questions in a game-show atmosphere in which the students were pitted against the full-time staff. Contestants competed for bragging rights only.Home-grown learning games are a possibility for any group which has the creativity, drive, and means to develop them. Our newest titles illustrate the wide range of approaches that can be taken to meet the challenge of teaching through fun.","PeriodicalId":131408,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the 34th annual ACM SIGUCCS fall conference: expanding the boundaries","volume":"21 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2006-11-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"123291337","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
