Empowerment of people through information and media literacy is an important prerequisite for fostering equitable access to information and knowledge, and building inclusive knowledge societies. Information and media literacy enables people to interpret and make informed judgments as users of information and media, as well as to become skillful creators and producers of information and media messages in their own right.

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

Based in University of Washington's iSchool, the large-scale research project investigates how early adults on different college campuses conduct research for course work and how they conduct "everyday research" for use in their daily lives... more > What is PIL? >

  There is a dearth on the focus of preparing teachers for Middle School education. A difficult and challenging age, but one where a good teacher and caring adult can make all the difference.

  The challenges of teaching Middle School - so much of the "teaching" falls outside of classroom bounds.

It is the knowledge of commonly used research techniques.
