Teaching & Testing Information Literacy Skills ― Teaching And Testing Information Literacy Skills

For K-12 librarians, this manual explains how to enhance students' test scores by teaching them information literacy skills. Based on the premise that students who understand how information is classified can better use it, Smith provides background, explores new instructional models, and presents curriculum based on ideas from science teachers and standards in Information Literacy: Building Partnerships for Learning. She explains collaboration with educators, successful instruction and testing, and lesson planning. The last chapter is an account of experiences by two media specialists from middle schools. There is no index. Smith is a former librarian, teacher, and library media consultant. Annotation c2006 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
