Prisms Around Student Learning: Information Literacy, IT Fluency, and Media Literacy
| Title: | Prisms Around Student Learning: Information Literacy, IT Fluency, and Media Literacy (ID: ELI07302) | | Author(s): | Craig Gibson (George Mason University) | | Origin: | Presented at ELI Meetings (08/15/2007) | | Type: | Presentations/Speeches | | Abstract: | The family of literacies now promoted in higher education (information literacy, IT fluency, and media and visual literacies) continues to multiply. These educational agendas call for more pervasive collaboration among all stakeholders (faculty, administrators, librarians, technologists, student life staff, assessment specialists, and others) because of conceptual and programmatic linkages and convergences among them. The blending of these literacies can become a catalyst that taps into student learning and engagement at a deep level and effects cultural change within and across institutions.
