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

We limit students if we do not help them 
develop and use information literacy skills 
across the curriculum.

Technology & “Digital 
Natives” 
• It is how they communicate & socialize 
• Ubiquitous, transparent part of their 
lives 
• Empowered by being connected to 
information & each other 24/7 
• Globally connected 
• Often balk at being “taught” technology 
• Expect guides not experts

In-depth use of technology? 
Not so much 
• Not efficient or effective searchers 
• Little evaluation of what they find—don’t 
know how to evaluate 
• Application of technology limited to 
product creation 
• Not really using technology to 
solve/answer complex or in-depth 
problems
