English abstract

The idea of Library Training via Internet was the element of the prepared in 2005 document titled “Trends in development of the Main Library of the Medical University of Gdańsk in 2005-2010”. We have introduced E-learning as a method of teaching the same year as an obligatory seminars for all the first-year students. This implementation also finished three years of our research and development work on effectiveness of trainings already existing in our library. Preparing the course we based on the students’ answers of the questionnaires as well as librarians experience in the field of teaching. From the other hand we also had to: - learn the teaching methods of distance learning - know how to create the dynamic web pages - study the programs for computer graphics - know how to create and use the hypertext - have a knowledge about the copyrights - learn how to synthesize and present the educational material in the course - learn the rules of preparing the online questionnaire - know how to verify the effects of this kind of training - prepare the electronic test permitting students to pass the course In our poster we present: - the most important and interesting, in our opinion, elements of our Library Training via Internet - what is the impact of preparing processes of the library training via e-learning method on expanding our librarians knowledge and skills - some analyses of training effectiveness as results of questionnaire.
