  • Fostering Information Literacies in a Writing Course
    Canadian Journal for Studies in Discourse and Writing/Rédactologie 51 Volume 29, 2019 http://journals.sfu.ca/cjsdw Article Learner-Created Podcasts: Fostering Information Literacies in a Writing Course Stephanie Bell York University Abstract This paper describes an experimental learner-created podcasting assignment in a first-year undergraduate research skills course for professional writers. The podcasting assignment serves as a contextualized experiential writing project that invites students to refine their research skills by participating in the invention of an emerging genre of radio storytelling. The power of the podcast assignment lies in the liminal space it creates for learners. It moves students beyond familiar and regimented essay conventions to an unstable writing environment where digital tools for producing, publishing, and negotiating meaning offer a range of possible audiences, modalities, forms, and modes of meaning making. This space creates the pedagogical conditions for epistemic development, through which students adopt as their own the research practices of adept and experienced writers. The multiple demands of this course on writing, research, and digital environments generates the beginnings of interdisciplinary writing pedagogy involving Kent’s (1993, 1999) postprocess mindset, the ACRL’s (2015) Framework for Information Literacy in Higher Education, Baxter Magolda’s (1999) constructive-developmental pedagogy, and Arroyo (2013)’s elaboration of participatory digital writing pedagogy.

  • Information Transliteracy”?
    International Conference “Media and Information Literacy (MIL) for Knowledge Societies”, 24-28 June, 2012, Moscow, Russian Federation Can one speak of an “information transliteracy”? Vincent LIQUETE ( Bordeaux University – IMS/CNRS UMR 5218 [Human Engineering and Knowledge Engineering (Team CIH)] [email protected] / [email protected] Summary of paper: The issue of transliteracy in general and particularly informational transliteracy is increasingly being debated worldwide and from extremely varying perspectives. These concepts refer to highly varied cultural and professional realities and contexts. In this paper we will discuss three dimensions and issues. First, we will attempt to delineate the scope and range of current thinking by researchers in information and communication sciences in France with regard to informational transliteracy, and present its four main components. Second, we will lay the claim that the informational transliteracy approach goes beyond the “Media and Information Literacies (MIL)” approach, in particular by giving all due importance to issues related to learning with computers, i. e. “computation”. Finally, we will present some new thinking that is currently being implemented in the French education system and will present some research projects involving informational transliteracy (LIMIN-R project, Translit project, etc.). Key words: Transliteracy / Information culture / French educative system / Informational practice /Competencie / Forward For twenty years now, the notions of information literacy and thereafter Translitteracy have been the subject of a wide range of definitions and an extensive scientific literature, especially in the Anglo-Saxon world. We will attempt during this presentation to demonstrate some of the main dimensions in terms of skills and attitudes in the various literacies that are giving rise to the new forms of training and support required in the future.

  • Adapting Reading Intervention for Online Students
    Adapting reading intervention for online students Baiyun Chen Atsusi Hirumi University of Central Florida Background Information With the advances of computer and network technologies, student enrollment in distance education has increased rapidly since the 1990’s. In 2003, it is estimated that about 40,000 to 50,000 K-12 students are enrolled in online courses nationwide (Golden, Wicks, & Williams, 2004). With the ever-increasing number of K-12 students who attend online program, researchers state in a report on virtual school in United States that “online education program(s) … already are having a significant impact on public education” (Watson, Winograd, & Kalmon, May 2004). Most likely, the K-12 online programs will take an increasingly important role in the school system of the United States. According to Building a Snapshot of Virtual Schools Across the Nation by Collins, “12 states have established online high school programs and 5 others are developing them… 25 states allow for the creation of so- called cyber charter schools, and 32 states have e-learning initiatives under way” (Collins, 2004). In the future, the option of e-learning will be available to every child for purposes of advanced study, credit recovery or remedial learning. The target population of a virtual school encompasses gifted students, students seeking credit recovery, and at-risk and dropout students. The focus of this paper is the problematic students who do not succeed in traditional classroom. The at-risk and dropout student population size is shockingly large. In 2000, some 3.8 million young adults were out of school without a high school credential, accounting for 11% of 16- to 24-year-olds in the United States (Kaufman, Alt, & MPR Associates, 2001).
