Abstract
Students need varied and engaging content to learn more effectively, but librarians struggle to bring interesting and engaging techniques and tools into the library classroom. Incorporation of multimedia and graphics will not only engage students, but help them better grasp various concepts and skills. As educators learn more about how people learn, we know that traditional slideshows and database walkthroughs are not the most effective tactics. This article presents ideas for librarians to use multimedia and graphics to engage students and learn research skills in the library classroom.
