I use several of those videos for tutor training purposes, and a few of the CADE instructors use them in the courses they teach.  I like them very much.

Thanks for the links, Pam! While reviewing some of the material, I happened upon this "How to get the most out of studying" video series. I thought they were very well done and I'm considering recommending them to my students. Although he didn't spend too much time on it, I liked that the speaker presented guidelines for group study. Here's the link-

Subject: Project Information Literacy - early adults and their information-seeking behaviors

I have been following the Project Information Literacy (PIL) study http://projectinfolit.org/ for some time.  Much of the information is now starting to be put together in what may be usable components.  The link above tells more about PIL and it's research study.  Templeton University has put together a very nice guide<http://guides.temple.edu/improving_research> (http://guides.temple.edu/improving_research)  to help faculty quickly understand the top findings coming out of Project Information Literacy research reports so that they can take advantage of the research to help improve their students' research skills.  The survey used included 8,000 students from 25 U.S. college campuses, additional research was completed using individual course-related assignments and student discussion groups.

Hope you find this useful.
