      Powerful message and worth remembering
  • 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.
  • A particular focus will be on training teachers to sensitize them to the importance of information and media literacy in the education process, enable them to integrate information and media literacy into their teaching and provide them with appropriate pedagogical methods and curricula.

      Working in airs is often better and produces more learning
  • Think-Pair-Share" is an active learning strategy that engages students with material on an individual level, in pairs, and finally as a large group. It consists of three steps. First, the instructor poses a prepared question and asks individuals to think (or write) about it quietly. Second, students pair up with someone sitting near them and share their responses verbally. Third, the lecturer chooses a few pairs to briefly summarize their ideas for the benefit of the entire class.

      the importance of librarians in supporting us in developing information literacy within our classrooms
  • Librarians have potentially numerous roles to play in this environment, but one of their key roles is in supporting and advising staff and students how to navigate, select and use digital tools, content and services to achieve a particular goal.
  • The starting point is the assertion that digital literacy is more extensive then effective use of technologies.

      a great article discussing information literacy with young readers

At the same time, help them become wise consumers of the information they find. These are skills that will last a lifetime.
