What is Information Literacy?
"To be information literate, a person must be able to recognize when information is needed and have the ability to locate, evaluate, and use effectively the needed information."
The American Library Association’s (ALA) Presidential Committee on Information Literacy, Final Report, 1989

Classroom Was the World• Teacher as authority in
all things• Standardized curriculum• Textbooks• Memorization• Cursive• Multiple choice• “Do your own work”

Classroom 1.0• Teacher imparting knowledge• Group work F2F• Desktop computing—one to many• $oftware licenses• Email attachments/Flash drives• Textbooks• Poster board• Little tech integration into
curriculum• Oregon Trail• Audience was the teacher & maybe
the class

Classroom 2.0
• Knowledge everywhere• Mobile devices• Online learning• Collaboration in the cloud• Online apps for writing,
presentations• Multimedia tools• Global authentic
audience
http://www.flickr.com/photos/36719320@N00/4564521012
• Teacher as guide to using tools & technology
• No longer sole source of information
Why Classroom 2.0?• Encourage collaboration and engagement to
involve every student in something that is personally engaging
• More opportunities for content creation on a broader stage
• Involves the students in a very proactive learning environment
• It’s the future—school, work, life

Library Research
• Quiet!• Librarians as keepers• Print• Resources limited to
what was on hand• Borrowing limits, often by
age• Stand alone—few
systems

Characteristics of Web 2.0 Tools
• Not tied to a device--Internet access needed
• Portability--available from any device
• No software--but Web plug-ins
• No programming• OS not an issue usually
(although browser may matter)
• User-generated content• Sharing--content,
expertise • Global connections• Perpetual Beta

iPad Tools
• Personalized device• Apps are device specific• Often tied to the device—not so much in the
cloud• Apps generally do one thing

• Improve productivity• Manage information• Collaborate• Expand our reach
Classroom/Library/Web 2.0 tools help us

skills across the curriculum.
