The Metronet Information Literacy Project is continuing and expanding . . . and becoming the Metronet Information Literacy Initiative. A great addition to this year’s program is the requirement of “23 Things” — exercises participants will complete in order to become more information/technology literate.
In the first reading I really liked the description of the other literacies: tool, resource, social-structural, research, publishing, media, computer, visual . . .
Fortunately, the second reading led me to more resources that I can use for the MILI lesson plan website.
The third reading included a great chart:
“The illiterate of the 21st century will be those who cannot learn, unlearn, and relearn.”
— Barbara Thierl
“Prepare to learn how to learn.”
“Life-long learning means we need to continually reinvent ourselves.”
“How can we advocate education as ‘national defense’?”
— Bill George
C = D x V x F > R
Change = Discontent x Vision x First steps > Resistance
– Doug Johnson
“Be an effective change agent. No one jumps a 20-foot chasm in two 10-foot jumps.”
— Scott McLeod
