Reviews

This volume brings together eight essays by information literacy and other specialists from the US, Europe, and Taiwan, who discuss collaboration by librarians and academic faculty to improve the use of information to learn in the elementary to postgraduate level. They describe an integrated information literacy instruction program that integrates concepts from informed learning, including the six frames, with inquiry-based learning frameworks; the development of research guides to teach information literacy skills in the history of non-fiction film; curriculum design in the college public speaking classroom; how information professionals learn; how librarians can support informed learning in the disciplinary classroom; how academic librarians can integrate information literacy into courses using an informed learning approach; the understanding of informed learning across multiple stakeholder groups in an international school community; and the political character of informed learning, particularly issues of power and resistance that arise in educational settings. -- Annotation (c)2019 * (protoview.com) *
