The findings of the research support the idea purported by Sural and Dedebali (2018) that in building the digital capabilities of their students, information literacy teachers can continuously improve themselves.

PurposeThe purpose of the study is to highlight the need for academic librarians to incorporate effective methodologies in their delivery of information literacy instruction.Design/methodology/approachThe researchers conducted a qualitative research using a case study approach. A nonprobability or purposive sampling method was employed in this research to select five participants. Semistructured interviews and observation were used to garner data from the sample.FindingsThe findings of the study revealed that the support required by distance education and face-to-face students is typically the same. An examination of the findings pointed to the fact that some students may be demotivated in information literacy instruction sessions because of an overload of information, which leads to frustration and poor performance.Practical implicationsThe findings of the study highlight the need for Caribbean academic librarians to incorporate effective methodologies in their delivery of information literacy instruction and provide an analytical view of how these methodologies may impact performance, understanding and the overall work produced by both students and faculty.Originality/valueResearch on the topic specific to the Caribbean is limited; therefore, research of this nature provides useful strategies that academic librarians may use in developing stellar information literacy programs in the Caribbean to help both students and faculty members achieve excellence.

However, there is a limited study conducted by Çetinkaya and Tabak (2019), Süral and Dedebali, (2018), Erdem ve Eğmir (2018), Dönmez and Baştürk (2010) with pre-service teachers, and to determine the curriculum information of preservice teachers. For this reason, it is thought that the results of this study, which was carried out with prospective teachers in different fields, will also contribute to the elimination of the deficiency in the literature.…”

This study aimed to examine the pre-service teachers' knowledge of curriculum in terms of different variables.The study group of the study, which was conducted according to the descriptive research model, consisted of 237 students in the 4th grade of the faculty in the 2018-2019 academic year. In the study, the pre-service teachers' general curriculum knowledge, the average points they received from curriculum development questions and the average points they received only from the questions related to the curriculum in their field of study were handled. As a result of the findings, it was seen that pre-service teachers' curriculum knowledge in their field showed a significant difference in favor of female teacher candidates. Also, it was observed that the average of all three points of preservice teachers differed significantly according to their branches and general curriculum knowledge differed significantly according to their branches.
