What are your research interests?<\/em> \u2013 Some of my research interests include how students apply information literacy skills in the workplace after college or to work experience that is part of their college experience. Because I work a lot with first year students and first year writing courses I am always interested in learning how to improve information literacy instruction in first year courses or within general education or core curriculum.<\/p>\nWhat do you enjoy most about your job?<\/em>\u00a0\u2013 I enjoy meeting students and learning about their interests and what they are studying. Especially at a large institution like Drexel it becomes easy to lump students into one group to describe them or to only see their faults or bad behavior, so connecting with them one on one helps me remember that they are all unique people. Also, usually our students are doing interesting work or have personal motivation that fuels their studies.<\/p>\n What are some of your personal hobbies or interests?<\/em> \u2013 In my free time I enjoy exploring Philadelphia, doing yoga, and traveling when I can.<\/p>\n An additional statement from Elise<\/em>\u00a0\u2013 I have been asked to help plan a few social events this year for ACRL DVC and I am looking for volunteers to help me. If you\u2019re interested let me know!
