Comments from Faculty & Students
~~
"I've had several students in class mention how much this program helped them so I always give it a plug." (Greg Pasztor, Communications Dept., email, Fall 2007)
"It's a great advantage for students. Most of all, they understand what a
modern, academic library has to offer them. I even had one student go
through the course a second time to gather up all she missed the first time.
"I am so thankful for this course for my students." (Ellen Shull, email, 12/7/04).
"My compliments on your information research cert class, I have finished
the first three and learned something every time. AS I related to the
librarian yesterday at the session, we never did this in our supposed
hot shot PhD program at UT Austin, but gee I am getting it here, what a
concept!
"Keep up the good work" (Dennis Elam PhD CPA, email, Dec. 8, 2004).
"I have definitely seen my students doing better work from taking even one of these courses" (Dora Ruffner, email, Aug. 16, 2004).
"I had good success in getting my students to attend last semester, and it paid dividends as their research papers were better quality than in the past. Thanks" (Rick Bonnell, Adjunct, Logistics Management, email, Aug. 12, 2003).
"Taking the LRC classes opened up my eyes and showed me how to use the computer and the Internet in a more advanced way.... The classes were actually fun" (student, fall, 2004).
"My experience with the LRC research [classes] was very interesting. I learned many things. Did you know that copying something off a book from an author it's called plagiarism" (student, fall, 2004).
"I thought this experience was cool. I really learned a lot in these classes. The teachers explained everything in full detail. They were really nice and this is something I would do all again. I learned that there are websites that aren't really what they say they are" (student, fall, 2004).
"I really recommend this... because this helps you to know more about the web sites and to do a good Internet research whenever you need it" (student, fall, 2004).
"I feel as if I learned more during these one-hour classes than I learned in a semester of computer courses. They were much more useful to me and the instructers were much better" (student, fall, 2004).
"Great speaker; VERY knowledgeable on the subject!" (student, Fall, 2006).
"I have definitely seen my students doing better work from
taking even one of these courses" (Dora Ruffner, Kinesthiology faculty).
"I had good success in getting my students to attend last semester, and it paid dividends as their research papers were better quality than in the past" (Rick Bonnell, Logistics faculty)
"I'd like to thank you for those classes--what a great
opportunity for our students!!" (Caroline Mains, English faculty).
"Congratulations on such a success with the certification program!... BRAVO!!" (Dr. Mary-Ellen Jacobs, Chair of English Dept.).
"I had five or six students participate in the program and they all gave
testimonials of their own accord to their classmates. I hope you will
continue this program in the fall!" (Karen Marcotte, IDST faculty).
"I will be requiring my HUMD0300 (20 students) to complete
the certificate. My SDEV students (60 students) have to complete at
least 2 sessions. Thanks for offering this course again!" (Patty Parma, Humanities and Success program faculty).
