Product Description

From School Library Journal

A thorough, logical approach to what was once considered "library skills," now more appropriately termed "information literacy." The first part outlines the shared goals of a school-based information literacy program, clearly delineating each role in the collaborative process, including the library media specialist, the classroom teacher, the school district, and the specific school. A five-stage information literacy model follows: "Define the Information Need," "Locate Information," "Process the Information," "Create and Communicate Results," and "Assess Process and Product." Appropriate tools to evaluate student learning are included. Parts II and III offer model lessons and samples for incorporating information-literacy skills into specific elementary and secondary school curricular areas. The final section gives adaptable templates for various resources such as bibliographic formats. A CD-ROM provides activity sheets that can be customized. Useful for administrators and media specialists at all levels.

From Booklist

This manual was developed by the Iowa City Community School District to help school library media specialists meet the new Information Literacy Standards for Student Learning (ALA, 1998). Included is a CD-ROM containing all the forms, etc., presented in the book, allowing users to modify the documents to suit their needs. Directions for use appear at the end of each chapter. The program revolves around a model of collaborative planning, flexible scheduling, and curriculum integration. The first chapter contains a list of questions to help readers determine if the model on which the program is based can be used in their situation. Part one describes the model; presents key concepts and skills, by grade level; and offers rubrics to assess student learning. Other sections contain model lessons. Some of the instruction may be delivered without computer access, but most of the lessons and activities are integrally tied to technology. Intended to be used, not just read, this is an outstanding resource for those with the right technology and circumstances. Susan Rosenzweig

5.0 out of 5 stars Amazingly Useful!, Jan 22 1999
By A Customer - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Developing an Information Literacy Curriculum, K-12 with CDROM (Paperback)
This is one of the most useful books I have found for educational purposes. It provides solid information, but even better it has forms /work sheets. These are located in the book (for Xeroxing) and on the CD-ROM (for printing). You can alter the forms on the computer (CD-ROM) if you need to. For teachers, or librarians who work with the Internet and database programs, this is great.
