COMP. 4 PROJECT MUSE W/ SPECIFIC FACET FIRST

After attempting a search with my most specific facet, (brain OR cognition) into every database, and receiving thousands of hits, at Dr. Akin's suggestion, I entered the very specific facet of
"inquiry based learning" into Project Muse, receiving 3230 hits, which is a quite a few less than usual.

I tried another specific phrase that worked very well, "brain based library learning." I got 500 plus hits, to which I added inquiry based learning, ending up with 214 hits. The first one was excellent. I loved this search, because it really did pull more results that related to teaching and using brain-based learning strategies IN THE LIBRARY!

Here´s the first one:

The Usual Doesn't Work:
Why We Need Problem-Based Learning
Larry Spence
AbstractDifficult to teach and learn, information literacy is a set of skills and knowledge that must be mastered through practice. Advances in the learning sciences reveal that students are not receptacles for wisdom deposits. They decide what they will learn. Problem-based learning exploits that insight. It calls for faculty/librarian collaborations. The following articles recount the steps in one such collaboration. Beginning with this article, they in turn, formulate the problem, design a plausible solution, apply that solution, and explore the implications of the process for libraries, librarians, and their resources.
The library was my Internet. The joy of books discovered me in the third grade. Nothing set the lineament of my life like libraries. In school everyone read the same books, and a teacher told me what they meant. In the library I chose, read, and thought for myself. The library's freedom promoted my curiosity, making it the key to my love of learning and my hatred of school.
