UNCG University Libraries’ Research, Outreach, and Instruction (ROI) department has developed an accessible and interactive suite of research modules and tutorials called University Libraries Tutorials for Research Assistance (ULTRA). ULTRA tutorials and modules are connected to the UNCG University Libraries Student Learning Outcomes, can be used with undergraduate and graduate students in all disciplines, and include individual topic-based modules.
Tutorials are the categories on the page, and the content of the tutorials are modules. So for example, there is a tutorial on “Credit: APA Citation Style” that includes the modules: Plagiarism, Citations, and APA Style. All of these tutorials and modules are available online with the option to login and create a certificate upon completion of each of the tutorials.
Do you not see a topic covered? Be sure to consult with your department librarian, and these topics can be adapted or tweaked to fit your student and research needs. These tutorials and modules are also available in Canvas as Modules through Canvas Commons, with the accompanying quizzes which can be set as graded or ungraded.
Please contact your department librarian or Sam Harlow (UNCG Online Learning Librarian) at slharlow@uncg.edu to discuss how to best use these research tutorials and modules in your face-to-face or online course.
