This dataset provides a data analysis of how student learning objective from PSCI syllabi map to threshold concepts from the ACRL Framework for Information Literacy for Higher Education (2016) and the AAC&U Information Literacy Value Rubric (2013). The data includes non-core course for courses offered from the Fall 2017 semester to the Spring 2020 semester. This data analysis is conducted every three years. This curriculum map excludes core course previously as they were examined in the UNT Libraries Core Curriculum Map.
The UNT Libraries serve the university and community by providing access to physical and online collections, fostering information literacy, supporting academic research, and much, much more.

Article presenting a curriculum mapping study of noncore course offerings in political science curricula by an early-career librarian. It combines syllabi study and curriculum mapping methods to analyze the language of student learning objectives (SLOs) from course syllabi and to integrate SLOs with threshold concepts from the ACRL Framework for Information Literacy for Higher Education and the AAC&U Information Literacy VALUE Rubric. The methods produce two sample sets: one of core concept representation and the other of additional observances for syllabi improvements. Results analyze the frequency and percentage distributions of threshold concepts in SLOs. The author outlines strategies for engaging faculty in information literacy and suggests how librarians and faculty might inform information literacy teaching in the department.
