Added links

Hi All:

I added a couple of links.
One is From Carnegie Mellon University - re lesson plans for teaching Info lit to kids.

I'm curious what you think of them. Unfortunately, there are many broken/dead links - which is not great- as they would have been useful.

The other is what Karen sent us from the Kentucky virtual library.
This is for our quick reference.

Just to update Karen and Hilary who weren't in the last meeting:
Our next main task is to come up with a checklist of which skills we think children need in order to gain expertise in navigating the information sources availalable to them. We were developing this in hopes that the teachers would be able to fill out the forms and then we could tailor our presentation for the skills most needed. The minutes should explain in more detail.


e.g. do your students know how to look for a book by title using library catalogue?
do your students know the difference between a web search engine and a database?


please post your comments!

Thanks,
Meg
