Alhamdulillah, we have finished our library skills sessions with 103 Science students (07 intakes). We really hope the students have benefited from the sessions and will apply those skills taught in their study. Most of the students attended were never been exposed to any library session since they enrolled in CFS. Therefore, they really enjoyed and experienced interesting learning session with me specifically during their hands-on and quiz time.
It was a 2 hours session for every group. Some of the topics covered were resources in the library and its location, how to identify references and the its importance in study and learning, how to use references particularly the encyclopedia and dictionaries, online library catalogue and few important functions, briefly introduction to digital library collections specifically online databases and e-books. Finally, identify few search engines and few effective searching techniques using the Internet.
Out of 103 students, there were 2 full marks scorer, whom both names are Nurul Nadia (what a coincidence!) Congratulations to both of them…. we do have presents for them!!!
We hope this collaboration between the CFS library and Science Department continues for the benefits of the students. Thank you to Mdm Fouziah who initiated this collaboration.
-CFS Library- Happy to serve you more…
