Library Support for ENGL 2010 & ENGL 2020 Instructors

USU Libraries Student Learning & Academic Empowerment unit supports ENGL 2010 and ENGL 2020 instructors through collaboration, information literacy learning resources, and student research consultations.

Research Foundations Canvas Course

In January 2025, USU Libraries launched a Research Foundations Canvas course to support CL1 and CL2 information literacy outcomes. Students earn a verifiable badge upon completion of each module.

Using the course in your ENGL 2010/2020 class

  • Share the self-enrollment link (https://usu.instructure.com/enroll/J7YPMG) with students to give them access to any module in the Research Foundations course.
  • For student accountability, consider creating an assignment in your course for students to complete a specific module. Students may then share their unique badge link in the assignment submission to verify they completed the module.
The Research Foundations Course replaces our old library modules. Please delete any old library modules that you have rolled-over in your course. Having a standalone course means you will not need deal with Canvas export packages to keep your library information up to date!

Recommended modules for ENGL 2010/2020:

  • Intro to Primary Sources
  • Investigating a Topic
  • Evaluating Sources
  • Synthesis
