InfoLit - Progress Update

All InfoLit QLC members - over the next week please do some reflection on how you are going and record it as comments on this post, or as a new post itself (remember to label it 'infolit'). Below are my initial reflections on the things I said I would do:

Progress I've made for my QLC actions:

The Our Way QLC is encorporating the inFOSmart resource into the MAD on Learning model. They agree that there is a lack of information skills teaching in MAD on learning. I think we need to provide them with guidance on the sorts of skills teachers need to build into their programmes, and then how they could/should build this in. This guidance should come from the work done by Duncan/Paul P in developing the inFOSmart resource.

I think we need to provide suggestions for how teachers could use the library and suggest items to put into team long term plans. Perhaps developing a suggested long term plan for teams would help this?

Desna/Chris - do you think this would help your QLC actions for improving how the library is used when classes visit?

I've been working with the Tech Wizards (as part of my TW work anyway) which is exciting. This ties in with Chris/Desna's work for book week. I'm encouraging all classes to contribute book reviews to go on the library blog.
