Information Literacy: Food for Thought

Via C&I, Marylaine Block has some interesting ideas on questions to pose at the beginning of an IL session to get some discussion going.

Some examples:


  • Who puts information onto the net?
  • What costs are involved in putting it there and keeping it there?
  • What laws might prevent some information from being posted on the net?

As usual, Cites & Insights is well worth checking out, for those that might not know about it. Walt has a number of other good reading suggestions in this issue including 10 ways to make the internet a better place.
