By moving past technology to literacy, we are able to mobilize a greater proportion of our teachers to make frequent use of the network and are able to achieve more impressive student achievement. The visitors to the high school are shown lab after lab with shining new computers. They peek into other classrooms and note 5-6 more computers at the back of each room. This school is wired! Every computer is networked to the World Wide Web. But something is missing. Something troubles the visitors.

Extractions: Interdisciplinary Process Skills Information Literacy is the ability to access, evaluate, and use information from a variety of sources for a variety of intended purposes. As we encounter major educational reform in this new millennium, Information Literacy, a concept which has been around since the mid l980's, will become a critical tool which should be an integral part of instruction. It is not an add on, but a tool and a strategy to build communication, critical thinking, and problem solving skills across the curriculum. CSAP and other new testing models require these skills. Library Information Specialists, in collaboration with classroom teachers and other staff, will use Information Literacy Standards as a guide for the instruction and learning which take place in the LIC and continues in the classroom.

Measurement Techniques At Indiana University Bloomington, assessment refers to research and inquiry into the improvement of teaching and learning. Assessment is a process in which goals and learning objectives of a program or course are identified and data are collected from multiple sources to document student, teacher, or program achievement of those goals and objectives. Multiple variations are possible: pre-test, post-test of students in a course or major; focus on faculty teaching styles; assessment of subject matter, learning or critical thinking skills; review of departmental goals and objectives, or other creative efforts generated by faculty or departments.

http://www.ri.net/RITTI_Fellows/Barton/infolit.html

Extractions: RITTI Fellows Research Holly Barton Why do we send children to school? Is it to implant certain facts, figures, and formulas into their heads to make students ready to enter the world? Do textbooks contain all information important and relevant for a student to survive in todays marketplace? Can the curriculum touch upon all of the topics that a student needs to know to be an effective member of society? Can educators provide all the information important for students to know so they can become contributing members of society? Learning doesnt stop at the school steps and it continues throughout life. To prepare students for the world, we must teach them how to learn. Perhaps the most valuable skill we can give children during their formal school years is the ability to use information to construct knowledge Through the advances made through technology, the walls of the classroom and the library have expanded to include the entire world. Technology gives us physical access to a wealth of information. However, the information housed on servers throughout the globe and in software and print resources is so abundant that finding what they need is a daunting task. Students must possess information literacy to put the information to good use.
