WHAT IS INFORMATION AND DIGITAL LITERACY? What do these terms mean to you? Are they different or the same? How do they relate to teaching and learning?
Why might they be important to your students? Why might they be important to your staff?
![Page 5: Digital and information literacy: Kent LibChat](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022051314/54c8991f4a7959936a8b4573/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
Information literate people will demonstrate an awareness of how they gather, use, manage, synthesise and create information and data in an ethical manner and will have the information skills to do so effectively. SCONUL 7 Pillars
Digital Literacy: "the ‘savvyness’ that allows young people to participate meaningfully and safely as digital technology becomes ever more pervasive in society.” Future Lab
By digital literacy we mean those capabilities which fit an individual for living, learning and working in a digital society: for example, the skills to use digital tools to undertake academic research, writing and critical thinking; as part of personal development planning; and as a way of showcasing achievements.

ANCIL: A New Curriculum for Information Literacy• Research was part of Arcadia Programme at
University of Cambridge (with Emma Coonan)
• We sought to understand the needs of undergraduates entering HE over the coming 5 years
• Develop a practical curriculum and supporting resources (all in 10 weeks from May – July 2011)
• Methodology: expert consultation and literature review
• 3 reports: many resources all on website
Followed up by Katy Wrathall and Helen Webster

Information literacy is a continuum of skills, behaviours, approaches and values that is so deeply entwined with the uses of information as to be a fundamental element of learning,
scholarship and research.
It is the defining characteristic of the discerning scholar, the informed and
judicious citizen, and the autonomous learner.
(Secker and Coonan, ANCIL definition of information literacy, 2011)

WHAT DO WE NEED?
A new curriculum?

WHAT DO WE NEED?
A new curriculum? A strategy or framework?

EMBEDDING VS INTEGRATING?
“The immediate connotation of the term ‘embedding’ is placement
and addition. While present in the [curriculum] it is neither integral nor integrated. It is there as an
add-on and can possibly be done without.”
(Victor Lim Fei, 2012)

CHALLENGING PERCEPTIONS ….
“… if the teachers, whether they’re school or university teachers, don’t have the same view of IL that we do, it’s always going to be [about] the skills. And the
skills are fine but anybody can teach the skills; it’s teaching the changing attitude and the different approach that I think
has to come from the teachers.”
(ANCIL Expert Consultation Report, 2011)

“It is as absurd to try and solve the problems of education by giving
people access to information as it would be to solve the housing
problem by giving people access to bricks.”
(Diana Laurillard, 2002)
