Information Environment: Challenges

Information Overload

Overwhelming Quantity/ Underwhelming Quality of Information

Half-life of Knowledge

slide-6
SLIDE 6

Information Overload

When a person finds it... hard to understand make sense of

  • rganize immense

number of info ...on a given topic.

slide-7
SLIDE 7

Information Overload

There are 23,800,000 pages related to the term ‘information overload’.

Information Overload

And at the top of the search result is a page from Wikipedia.

Shrinking Half-life of Knowledge

  • The time span from

when knowledge is gained to the time when it becomes

  • bsolete is

shortening.

  • Knowledge is

expanding and exploding

(Kapp, K. M. & McKeaguea, C. , 2002)

Shrinking Half-life of Knowledge

Schools’ Management of Challenges in Information Environment

  • Textbook/Teacher as source of content?
  • Discourage web use?
  • Provide less number of technology?
  • Pre-select resources?
  • Filter web content?
  • Information Literacy Instruction
slide-15
SLIDE 15

Why teach information literacy?

  • To enable the kids to

– effectively handle information and organize data into a coherent form or research

(information overload);

– evaluate authenticity of information materials and use those information relevant to the need at hand (quantity vs. quality info); – Be kept updated with latest validated information from reliable sources (half-life of

knowledge).

21st Century Learners

Google Gen

Kids google everything in their information search

e-Text Readers

Kids use the F pattern when reading web content.

Mobile Learners

Kids have access to information anywhere 24/7

Digital Creators

Kids can present information in multimedia format.

21st Century Learning Divide

Lost in the vast array

  • f

information Knows where to go and what to do with information

(Grassian, E.S. & Kaplowitz, J.R., 2009)

slide-19
SLIDE 19

Our school library/ info users

Beginner: Lost, can’t find info, needs help constantly, distracted, uninterested Intermediate: Self-starting, needs support, has moments of insight, will take advice, interested Advanced: Independent learner, knows where to go and how to get there, asks advice to monitor progress

(Loertscher, D. V. , 2001)

slide-20
SLIDE 20

Information Styles

Pragmatic Information Style Analytic Information Style Searching style Horizontal or surface search Vertical or explorative search Value in Information Quantity and time spent in info gathering Quality and relevance of info gathered Motivation in info search To come up with fast solution To understand contexts of info Reading Behavior Not extensive Extensive (Steinerova, J., 2010)

slide-21
SLIDE 21

Why teach information literacy?

  • To bridge the information literacy divide

among our information users.

  • To enable the kids to succeed in the 21st

century environment.

About Information Literacy

slide-25
SLIDE 25

Brief History of ILI

  • Promoted by Melvil Dewey
  • Individual instruction & ‘Just in

time’ delivery

Personal Assistance

  • Begun to do group instruction
  • Focus : Locating resources

Bibliographic Instruction

  • Included AV resources
  • Focus: Use of Library/AV

resources

Library/Media Instruction

slide-26
SLIDE 26

Brief History of ILI

  • Covers info resources beyond the library
  • Focus: Building Skills in identifying,

locating, evaluating, using information

Information Literacy Instruction

  • Focus :Extends Info skills applications to

any personal or academic learning situation—B. Stripling

Information Fluency?

  • This is a question of coverage/content

defined further by global issues, trends in the profession and your vision for students

What do we call it now?

slide-27
SLIDE 27

Information Literacy is about…

slide-28
SLIDE 28
  • Democratic

and Ethical behavior

  • Personal

Growth & Creativity

  • Synthesis

and Making Decisions

  • Inquiry &

Critical Thinking

Inquires, thinks critically,and gains knowledge Draws conclusions, makes informed decisions, creates new knowledge Shares knowledge ethically and productively in the society Pursues personal and aesthetic growth

Computer Skills Library Skills Information Competence

A good Information Literacy Program combines the learning of the three skills.

Rational Approach to Information Literacy

(Gorman, 2000)

slide-30
SLIDE 30

The 4 R’s of Library Literacy

  • Use references,
  • ther books, journals,

newspapers, AV, digital files, etc.

  • Use the card

catalog, indexes, OPAC and search engines to locate materials

  • Identify and

recognize the librarian and his/her roles

  • Observe

proper research skills

Research Skills Roles of the Librarian Resources Recording System

slide-31
SLIDE 31

Technology Literacy

(Partnership for 21st Century Skills, 2003)

Learn to use digital media to:

communicate and work collaboratively with

  • thers;

Gather, evaluate, and use information; Conduct research, solve problems and make informed decisions.

slide-32
SLIDE 32

Present Practices by School LMCs

InfoLit as integrated into other subject areas. InfoLit as a stand-alone subject

  • -Independent from other subject areas

No InfoLit or Library Instruction Program

  • --Library as a warehouse of materials
slide-33
SLIDE 33
  • All students receive

the same instruction.

  • Instruction is

systematic.

  • Disconnected to

what students need

  • Students bored;

waste of time

Approaches to Information Literacy Instruction (Loertscher, 2000)

Stand-Alone Course Course-integrated Instruction

  • Students learn

quickly when skill is used right after it is taught.

  • Students get help

from two adult experts.

  • Students are not at

the same skill level.

  • Librarian has to be

more flexible.

slide-34
SLIDE 34

Instructional Designs of IL

  • Stand alone ILI

tends to be like this

  • Teacher-centered
  • Knowledge based
  • Passive learning

Example: Lecturing on the cataloging system

  • f books

Content driven

  • Integrated ILI tends

to be like this

  • Student-centered
  • Skill based
  • Active learning

Example: Students identifying info sources for I.P.

Process driven

Stand-Alone IL Instruction Content-Process Combination

Teacher orients the students regarding sources they can find in the library. Students will indicate the library collection on the floor plan as they explore around. SAMPLE 1:

IL Process: Super3 Model

  • What am I supposed to do?
  • What will it look like if I do a really good job?
  • What do I need to find out to do the job?

Plan

  • Students take notes, read, draw a picture, write a

report, perform tasks to deliver learning output

Do

  • Did I do what I was supposed to do?
  • Do I feel ok about this?
  • Should I do something else before I turn it in?

Levels of Integration

Consumption Connection Cooperation Coordination Collaboration

Students consume library resources for photocopying, reading assignments, printing,etc. Librarian knows a class reservation in the library but has no input into the design and timing of it. Librarian knows lesson objectives & required output. Minimal consultation on types of resources available. Students consult the librarian re use of resources and how to do their research. Librarian is informed about lesson objectives, required output, deadlines, and evaluation criteria. Librarian facilitates the use

  • f resources, and teaches how to develop their research.

Librarian and subject teacher jointly plans, executes, and assesses the library session. (Marcoux, 2009)

Collaboration

S U B J E C T T E A C H E R L I B R A R I A N
