My name is Joshua Borycz. I will be teaching my first course in Chemical
Literature at Vanderbilt University next semester. My goal is to make the
course as engaging and useful for the students as possible and I need your
help.

Hearing about the topics and assessment methods covered in the STEM
curricula of more experienced teachers will help me to design a course that
will highlight the most important issues in scholarly publishing,
information seeking, and data management.

By completing this survey you will be influencing a newly designed course
on Chemical Literature. The course plan will be published and study results
will be made available on OSF after completion.

The response has been great so far. Thank you to all those who have
participated!

*Vanderbilt University Study on Teaching STEM Information and Literature*

The STEM Librarians at Vanderbilt University are seeking university faculty
or staff that have taught information seeking or literature-based
coursework to STEM students to complete a short survey on their courses.
The responses will help us better understand how information, literature,
and/or research related coursework is being introduced into university
curricula. This will allow us to improve course design and help guide
others as they seek to create classes for STEM students.

The questionnaire should take 5-10 minutes to complete. Your participation
in this research is voluntary, and you may decline to participate without
risk. While it is useful to be complete in your responses to the survey,
you may skip any questions, and you are free to withdraw from the study at
any time.
