Metaliteracy in Practice will provide inspiration for librarians
and educators in need of up-to-date and thought-provoking
information literacy curricula and instructional approaches.
Editors Trudi E. Jacobson and Thomas P. Mackey, respected leaders
in distance education and library instruction, reframed information
literacy in their acclaimed previous book, Metaliteracy:
Reinventing information literacy to empower learners, which
provided an inclusive framework that encompasses all the newer
literacies such as digital, visual, cyber and media literacy.
Metaliteracy in Practice follows on from this book, placing its
concepts firmly in real-world practice and delivering a compilation
of innovative and practical teaching ideas from some of the leading
thinkers in library and information literacy instruction today.
Each chapter takes readers through the process of using the
metaliteracy framework in new and exciting ways that easily
transfer to the classroom and to work with students. These ideas
are grounded in teaching traditional information literacy
competencies but brought up-to-date with the addition of methods
for teaching and learning about metacognition, information creation
and participation in learning communities. The case studies
contained in this collection detail the hows and whys of curricular
design for metaliteracy, suitable for both beginners and seasoned
professionals. Readers will also benefit from the book's practical
ideas for: * teaching students about the importance of format
choice * assessing user feedback * creating information as teachers
* evaluating dynamic content critically and effectively * sharing
information in collaborative environments. The collection has some
of the most innovative teaching ideas for inspiring librarians and
educators to revise lessons on critical thinking and information
literacy, so that their students will graduate with the ability to
formulate and ask their own questions.
