Bill and Sheila's Information Literacy Place - 0 views

    • Lisa Keeler
       
      I like Bill and Sheila for creating this great site for infolit!
  • These pages are produced by Sheila Webber, who teaches at Sheffield University, and Bill Johnston, who teaches at Strathclyde University (see who we are and what these pages are for, below). New on 3 September 2006. I am giving these pages an overhaul! The Definitions and models and Standards and position papers were updated today (3 Sept 2006), with new content added and links checked. I also did some content updating of the Resources and the Our views and publications pages, and corrected the links both for those and the Learning and Teaching Resources page. I removed a couple of the old sections (Events and People). The remaining sections were last updated in 2003, but I do intend to overhaul them too. For events, news, reports etc. I recommend looking on my Information Literacy weblog which normally has about 5 entries added a week. Standards & position statements Organisations & resources Definitions and models of IL Learning and teaching resources Research into information literacy IL in schools Conference papers on information literacy Our publications & presentations etc. Relationship between librarians and faculty Information literacy and society

Education Week Teacher: Cultivating Student Leadership - 0 views

  • "Leadership is the wise use of power. Power is the capacity to translate intention into reality and sustain it.
  • One way to have power is by feeling a strong sense of self-efficacy—a strong belief that you can accomplish your goals.
  • helping them learn to categorize information instead of just listing data.

  • We can help our students gain the capacity to tackle unforeseen problems by emphasizing comprehension
  • We can also introduce students to what community organizers call "relational power" when we use cooperative learning activities and invite as much participatory democracy in the classroom as possible.
  • we can build relationships with students so we can learn their self-interests, hopes, and dreams, and be better prepared to more explicitly connect lessons to them. We can praise effort and specific actions more than intelligence. And we can encourage cooperative learning.
  • Good leaders also teach others.
  • "We learn 10% of what we read, 20% of what we hear, 30% of what we see, 50% of what we see and hear, 70% of what we say or write...[and] 90% of what we teach.”
  • Teaching others not only requires students to reread and return to learned material but it also enhances self-confidence and provides good modeling for peers.
  • When peers teach one another, they develop respect for each others’ judgment and expertise.
  • We can also develop student leadership by creating opportunities for students to take collective action to improve their community

    This is an interesting article about instilling leadership skills into your students.

      *encouragement to react to new technology in the classroom fearlessly
  • Being a 21th century teacher means we have to equip our students with the know-how of technology, there simply is no excuse to not fulfill our job.  Our students learn from us, even the way we react to change, so think of your approach as the newest thing is shown to you.  Will you model how to be fearless?

      We have opportunities to reach outside our own classrooms and communities to help others with the click of a button. We should be modeling this kind of action within our students. 
  • So last month they started a petition on Change.org, the go-to site for Web uprisings. They demanded that Universal Studios “let the Lorax speak for the trees.” The petition went viral, quickly gathering more than 57,000 signatures, and the studio updated the movie site with the environmental message that the kids had dictated.
  • “These kids are really feeling the glow of making the world a better place. They’re feeling that power.”

    I saw this and also thought it was amazing. One of the advantages of technology is it really is an equalizer.
