ABSTRACT INTRODUCTION Background History: ... Table 2 ABSTRACT INTRODUCTION A recent issue of the Journal of the American Society for Information Science (November 1996) is devoted entirely to the "Perspectives on ...Distance Independent Education." Among the important issues raised is the instructional challenge of transforming passive classroom students into active, self-directed learners capable of benefiting from the special advantages of the new online technology that is now becoming available in traditional instructional settings. In an article focusing on "Cognition and Distance Learning" Linn [1] describes passive learners as expecting to "absorb information," failing to "identify connections between ideas," and "frequently forget what they learn" (p.827). In contrast, "autonomous learners" use books, electronic media, networked communication, even computer manuals to gain a linked, connected, integrated and cohesive understanding of a topic.

information literacy enables students to recognize the value of information information literacy Outcomes with Ideas for Active Learning Assessment.
http://www.pace.edu/library/pages/instruct/effectiveassignments.htm

Extractions: Developing Student Information Literacy Skills Jump to Assignment Ideas An information literate student is able to recognize their information need and then locate, evaluate, and use effectively and ethically the needed information. Enabling students to go beyond the confines of an assignment and focus on the process of seeking solutions to their information needs is crucial. Information literacy enables students to recognize the value of information and use it to make informed choices in their personal, professional and academic lives. An important first step in laying the foundation for an information literate student body is the collaboration between faculty and librarians in creating effective research assignments.

An article that explains how to integrate information literacy into a Women sStudies Week Seven (OL) New Technologies of Race (Active Discussion)
http://www.uwsa.edu/ttt/articles/nelson.htm

Extractions: Several participants at the Women's Studies Consortium conference held in early January 2004 demonstrated successful models of incorporating hybrid (i.e., web-enhanced ) courses into Women's Studies pedagogy. While the hybrid environment is still a fairly new pedagogical approach toward integrating face-to-face and online learning, the overall reaction from the conference participants was that "hybridization" was the best of both worlds, because it actually increased student involvement and discussion in the learning experience. As courses adapt to the hybrid environment, librarians must consider how information literacy instruction can be successfully integrated. My presentation focused on integrating information literacy instruction into Women's Studies programs taught within a hybrid environment. I reviewed Women's Studies programs that have incorporated information literacy components into the curricula from other institutions, including online, hybrid and traditional courses. I also demonstrated an introductory Women's Studies course (WS 105) taught by Professor Pat Gott from the English Department at UW-Stevens Point, who was kind enough to let me use her syllabus and make changes for a mock hybrid course that I created using Desire-to-Learn (D2L), a course management platform implemented throughout the UW System.
