CILASS• Centre for Excellence in Teaching and Learning• 5 year programme, £4.85M in total• Includes £2.35M capital funding• Focusing on inquiry-based learning• Core community: Faculties of Arts, Social Sciences,
Law• Impacting on the learning experience of 10,000
students• CILASS hub located in the Information Commons plus
‘satellite’ in another central University location

Inquiry-based learning (IBL) • Modelling the process of research
within the student learning experience
• Student-directed, open-ended inquiry
• Problems; case scenarios; small- and large-scale investigations
• ‘Full’ IBL – the design principle for whole modules/programmes
• ‘Hybrid’ IBL – activities incorporated into more traditional curricula

IBL involves• Tutor and/or students establishing question/problem etc• Students pursuing lines of inquiry (often in groups) • Drawing on existing knowledge• Identifying new learning and information needs• Seeking information, evidence, e.g. interacting with (digital)
resources, datasets, archives• Discussing, receiving feedback, synthesising information,
constructing knowledge• Analysing and communicating ideas and results• Participating in a research community

CILASS IBL framework• Collaborative inquiry• Information literacy
development• Networked learning• Interdisciplinary
inquiry
• Explicit and embedded
‘process support’

Spaces for IBL
• Flexible
• Social
• Information-rich
• Technology-rich
• Integrated – supporting independent learning and facilitated learning

CILASS spaces
• 3 ‘collaboratories’ (40, 40 and 24 students)• 1 with collaborative workstations
• 2 with stackable tables/chairs and laptops
• Breakout/group-work rooms (6-8 students)
• 3 modes of use: bookable by staff; by students; drop-in

CILASS spaces
• Plus: • Social (‘soft’) space• Refreshments• Wireless networking
• Plus:• Seamless access to the wider resources of the
IC, and its staff

CILASS technologies
• Collaborative desktops• Laptops• Multiple plasma screens• Interactive whiteboards• Access Grid
videoconferencing (studio-based and
personal)• Standard
videoconferencing• Video-recording • ‘Huddleboards’ and
copycams
Plus kit for out-of-classroom use: Personal Digital Assistants, camcorders, digital cameras, personal response systems etc.

Some questions• A research library supports research
activity: what does it need to do differently to support an expanded vision of the research community and its activities?
• Do students need a research collection to have a research experience?
• To what extent are space and facilities needed for collaborative research interactions in specific discipline areas?

Some questions
Does the distinction between undergraduate and research libraries collapse if the aim is to bring research and learning closer together?
If it does, what are the implications for the development of new spaces and services?

15
Some questionsWhat is the case for separating spaces and services for learning and research? Does IBL involve forms of
research-related activity that don’t apply at more advanced levels?
