Cooperative Library Instruction Project - 0 views

  • The collection might look something like an interactive, online information literacy "text book" from which librarians or instructors anywhere can select and use pieces as they choose

      "how to" video tutorials are an important element in most information literacy sessions and classes. The beauty of CLIP is that the videos are un-branded and are genericl enough that they can be used by any library or institution. The video library gives me a lot of options for my class.

      This resource is great to help broaden a teachers scope of literacy.  There are many parts to explore.

      In each activity you can click to find out more information about how it is helping the student. They address how students are hitting the Language Strand, Skills, Theme and Type. It is easy to understand for both a teacher and a parent.

      It is easy to find different activities to try just by looking through the different stands.

      I like the section that discusses home to school connections. Many times it is hard for teachers to continue their students learning at home. This site gives great tips and tricks for teachers to give to parents to help them help their students.

      I plan on using this resource in my course as a tool for my students to explore some activities they can implement in their classroom involving literacy. The choice will be theirs on what they choose to use if they choose to use any. I plan on adding this to my module that ties in technology. I think it would be a good fit there.

Confronting the Challenges of Participatory Culture: Media Education for the 21st Century - 0 views

  •  
    This white paper (Jenkins et al., 2006) identifies the three core challenges: the participation gap, the transparency problem and the ethics challenge, and shares a provisionary list of skills needed for full engagement in today's participatory culture.
  •  
    We have also identified a set of core social skills and cultural competencies that young people should acquire if they are to be full, active, creative, and ethical participants in this emerging participatory culture: Play - the capacity to experiment with your surroundings as a form of problem-solving Performance - the ability to adopt alternative identities for the purpose of improvisation and discovery Simulation - the ability to interpret and construct dynamic models of real world processes Appropriation - the ability to meaningfully sample and remix media content Multitasking - the ability to scan one's environment and shift focus as needed to salient details. Distributed Cognition - the ability to interact meaningfully with tools that expand mental capacities Collective Intelligence - the ability to pool knowledge and compare notes with others toward a common goal Judgment - the ability to evaluate the reliability and credibility of different information sources Transmedia Navigation - the ability to follow the flow of stories and information across multiple modalities Networking - the ability to search for, synthesize, and disseminate information Negotiation - the ability to travel across diverse communities, discerning and respecting multiple perspectives, and grasping and following alternative norms.

      Yet another great source of unbranded, generic, and high quality "how to" videos that I can mine for my course.
    • Diana Cary
       
      This is great Anne. Where did you find these resources Merlot or one of the others? How will you incorporate this video into your online course?
    • Anne Deutsch
       
      Hi Diana - LION is a bit like Merlot for librarians but more limited in scope as it's only videos. The quality is high and videos don't have any branding so that they can be utilized by any library.
