IL Continuum

This continuum illustrates the different layers of information literacy instruction.

Research Model Designs

Help! We need feedback on our two proposed research model designs...

We're getting student feedback from several classes, and faculty at the retreat (see below) gave us their feedback. Now, we want to know what you think.

Please comment on which one you like best & why. Tell us if you have any ideas for improving your preferred design (font, color, design changes etc.)

A Lovely Day for IL

February 24th was a rainy Saturday but 15 faculty, 4 librarians, and one dean gathered at the lovely Bastyr campus for collaboration and contemplation on Information Literacy.

At the end of the day, participants said,

"IL is a first step to holistic education."

"Now IL extends in my perception beyond library teaching to the entire SCCC organization."

"I am aware of the college-wide need to bring IL into the lives of our faculty colleagues and their respective students."

Next steps: Faculty will be invited to participate in IL fellowships that support efforts to engage more faculty from their programs and/or divisions.
