Information Literacy : Navigating & Evaluating Today's Media SEP 50554 “Information literacy” implies the ability to read and understand information. Now more than ever, such literacy skills are increasingly important—and more challenging to attain. Students must be able to identify, acquire, interpret, evaluate, organize, and share information. Information Literacy provides educators with . K–12 Grades • strategies and activities to help students achieve information literacy • guidelines for evaluating sources of information • tools for judging authenticity of data • insights to using information responsibly by citing sources and respecting copyrights • ideas on concept mapping, graphic organizing, and project-based learning Media Today’s & Evaluating Navigating Literacy Information • means to starting up and using blogs, wikis, podcasts, and more There are many exciting opportunities in this age of information—for those who are literate. Sara Armstrong, PhD, was a classroom teacher for 17 years, where she had the opportunity in the early 1980s to develop a telecommunications project using her 300-band modem and an Atari 800 computer. This interactive book talk with students at a school 200 miles away sparked a lifelong interest in putting students in touch with another through the use of technology. She especially hopes that exchanging ideas with others they normally wouldn’t meet will help students develop as global citizens and advocates for world peace. Armstrong is an associate of the Thornburg Center for Professional Development, a CUE Gold Disk winner, and a passionate advocate for meaningful teaching and learning. Through her organization, Sara Armstrong Consulting, she speaks and conducts workshops on topics that include information literacy, digital storytelling, project-based learning, multiple intelligences, and technology integration. Armstrong develops curriculum and writes for a number of journals. She is editor of California CUE’s OnCUE journal and serves on the Ho’ala Foundation for Education Board of Directors, River School Charter Council, and chairs the Storytelling Association of Alta California’s Board.

Chapter 01 – 1:10 Introduction Announcer: Steve Ripley grew up in Oklahoma, graduating from Glencoe High School and Oklahoma State University. He went on to become a recording artist, record producer, songwriter, studio engineer, guitarist and inventor. Steve worked with Bob Dylan, playing guitar on the Shot of Love album and on the Shot of Love tour. Dylan listed Ripley as one of the good guitarists he had played with. Red Dirt was first used by Steve Ripley’s band Moses when the group chose the label name Red Dirt Records. Steve founded Ripley Guitars in Burbank, California, creating guitars for musicians like Jimmy Buffet, J.J. Cale and Eddie Van Halen. In 1987 Steve moved to Tulsa to buy Leon Russell’s recording facility The Church Studio. Steve formed the country band The Tractors and was the co-writer of the country hit “Baby Likes to Rock It”.
