This spring, California Conference on Library Instruction (CCLI) invites you to participate in a one-day conference on innovative and alternative instruction models. We will explore programs such as the flipped classroom (moving lecture to the home environment and bringing homework into the classroom through active learning), active learning communities (a group of people who share commonalities and are actively engaged in learning together), emerging Library Research Assistant Technicians positions (specially trained students who provide peer research support) and strategies to sustain instruction programs.
