How we can help
Support you students with Kelly Instruction Modules
Kelly Librarians and SMC writing instructors have developed several interactive tutorials to help your students produce clearer, more thoughtful essays. The tutorials cover a range of skills and concepts, including narrowing a topic, creating a research question, developing an argument, fine-tuning thesis statements, keyword-searching, understanding primary sources, and gaining confidence with citation.
Please feel free to embed one or more instructional tutorials or videos in Quercus. Here’s how:
- Click the red <> Embed bar beneath a tutorial.
- Copy the code to your clipboard using CTRL-C (or COMMAND-C on an Apple).
- Create a page in Quercus and give it a title.
- Select the </> HTML editor link at the bottom of the editor box.
- Paste the embed code into the box using CTRL-V (or COMMAND-V on an Apple).
- Save & Publish the page.
