The 21st Century Information Fluency Project (21CIF) began in 2001 when the Illinois Mathematics and Science
Academy received funds from the US Department of Education to research and develop training in the largely
unexplored field of online information literacy. The mission then, which remains today, is provide professional
development and resources to help educators and students improve their ability "to locate, evaluate and use digital
information more effectively, efficiently and ethically." Great site to learn all about information literacy!
What if every student (and educator) was a good online researcher? I know, you don't have the time to teach information fluency skills. What if you could get a significant advance is skills with just a 2 -3 hour time commitment?
Here's a great Prezi 'fly by" of the new Information Investigator 3.1 online self paced class. Watch the presentation carefully to find the link to a free code to take the class for evaluation purposes.
