A report from an ongoing Project Information Literacy study about lifelong learning has just been released. The first phase involved interviewing recent grads and their employers – fascinating stuff. This one summarizes the results of a survey taken by over 1,600 recent grads of ten colleges and universities – a hard-to-reach group, as any alumni office will tell you. Though the respondents are not representative of graduates generally, this survey adds some heft to the previous study and sets the stage for the third and final phase of this important project.
Nazlin Bhimani is the Research Support & Special Collections Librarian at the UCLInstitute of Education (IOE). She blogs here about the importance of teaching information literacy skills in academic libraries.
Learning in most academic institutions relies on the provision of library resources to both support and supplement what is being taught and researched. With the rapidly changing information landscape and the myriad ways in which users can search for information, the challenge of locating, accessing and finding relevant and appropriate information resources for academic research is ever present.
Library users require skills that include knowledge of different types of information resources and an understanding of the most appropriate ways of critically evaluating information, using it in an ethical manner and managing this information.
‘Information literacy’, as these information and literature search skills are referred to, go hand-in-hand with digital literacies, which allow users to make the best use of the technologies employed by information providers. These literacies, in turn, form the gamut of academic literacies that ensure that learners leave formal education with the appropriate skills to enable them survive in the work place and to continue their learning throughout life.
With the digital revolution spreading its wings into all aspects of society, its inroads into academia are unavoidable. It is therefore essential that teachers be prepared both mentally and skill-wise in the use of technology in the classroom....

This Is a great way to mix both things I love! sport and technology. As I am studying to be a HPE teacher I found this article very interesting. By using a resource such as an Ipad in your PE lessons, not only does it promote technology but also being active. Teachers and students will be capable of examining particular sporting techniques they had demonstrated immediately after performing it with the support of an Ipad app. Great resource to implement ICT into the HPE classroom!

Introducir las TIC en el contexto universitario no es suficiente para crear una cultura de aprendizaje y conocimiento. Al igual que ocurrió con la Radio, TV y la Computadora, la tecnología transmediática NO SIRVE para dictar clases magistrales ni para administrar pruebas en línea. Los resultados serán los mismos que sin el uso de recursos tecnológicos sofisticados. Escolarizar la tecnología no es el camino correcto a seguir.
Son los estudiantes quienes tienen que llevar su rol activo a través de las TAC, al convertirse en co-creadores, co-diseñadores, co-evaluadoresy co-acompañantes. Es momento de que los estudiantes se apropien de su proceso de aprendizaje investigando, generando definiciones compartidas con significados distribuidos, creando soluciones nunca antes imaginadas, pronosticando fenómenos que aún no han sido planteados y difundir sus proyectos de aprendizaje con las comunidades.
No hace falta invertir una millonada en reformas educativas. Con la infraestructura tecnológica disponible se puede llevar a cabo infinidad de proyectos de aprendizaje con los estudiantes. La verdadera revolución educativa vendrá de los Aprendices TAC, no de los funcionarios de los sistemas educativos.
Ese fue el mensaje principal presentado en el 4to Encuentro Internacional (Presencial y Virtual) Verano TIC 2015, coordinado por UNACHI (Panamá) y UCR (Costa Rica) y auspiciado por ATELIS.
Maravilloso para que las universidades y centros educativos en general se decidan a salir de la obsolescencia tan dramática en la que todavía hoy en día viven. Acerquen por favor la vida real al aula.
