Greetings,
Those of you who do instruction might be interested in this 12-minute video from NLM: Branching Out: The MeSH Vocabulary (http://www.nlm.nih.gov/bsd/disted/video/). We watched this during the NTCC PubMed class on Tuesday. I think it could be useful to push this out to students before an integrated instruction class to introduce them to the concept of MeSH. We could also post this and other similar videos and presentations on WebCT/Vista or Moodle pages as supplementary material. Should we post this on our Bio-Med Web page? What do you think?
The NTCC trainers also showed these cute little animated tutorials from the University of Lethbridge Library about Boolean Operators: http://www.uleth.ca/lib/guides/research/display.asp?PageID=35.
There's a bunch of other instructional material on the NLM Distance Education Program Resources page (http://www.nlm.nih.gov/bsd/dist_edu.html).
Martha
