Abstract

This research investigated how to use curriculum mapping as a curriculum-integration tool to identify the components of information literacy (IL) and evidence-based practice (EBP) in the nursing curriculum for the future systematic incorporation of information literacy components in teaching EBP. The primary objective is to strengthen information literacy and evidence-based research competency. The ACRL information literacy framework in Higher Education, Information Literacy Competency Standards for Nursing, EBP Competencies, and the EBP research model were used to provide structure to create a map and crosswalk of information literacy and EBP student learning outcomes. We obtained 59 copies of the nursing undergraduate and graduate course syllabi to perform content analysis for each course. Content analysis was performed on each syllabus to identify existing or potential student learning outcomes (SLO) and assignments related to EBP and IL. The curriculum map can offer fully embedded librarian–faculty partnership opportunities to evaluate courses for IL and EBP learning outcomes together. It can also help to provide an opportunity to explore valid and reliable assessment tools to measure student IL competencies in the future.
