Please join us live at 11AM EST on November 18, 2021 for the first TLGS (Transforming Libraries for Graduate Students) Webinar Series.
Topic: “Brainwork in the Research Lifecycle: Idea Development Activity with SCAMPER”
First-generation thesis and dissertation students may not recognize that true research is a metacognitive activity that produces a writing product. This presentation discusses metacognition and its role in the research process, existing models of the research process and cycle and how they contribute to a general lack of metacognition, and the SCAMPER framework to develop questioning schema to encourage critical thinking and ideation during the research process.
Presented by: Dr. Vandy Pacetti-Donelson, Director of Library and Instructional Design and an Assistant Professor of humanities and research at the United States Sports Academy, a special mission university in Daphne, Alabama. Dr. Pacetti-Donelson earned her MLIS from The University of Southern Mississippi and her doctoral degree from Nova Southeastern University in Instructional Leadership with an emphasis in Instructional Technology and Distance Education. Her research focuses on analysis of knowledge domains, visual conceptions of knowledge, and systems thinking.
