Introduction
The
Library & Information Literacy Skills Points
of Collaboration were written to assist classroom teachers and school
library media specialists as they work together to meet the New York State
Learning standards as well as the American Association of School Librarians Information Literacy Standards for Student
Learning. The collaboration of
teachers and library media specialist in information-based learning will result
in students who are successful consumers and producers of information.
In
this document, New York State Learning Standard Performance Indicators are
linked with the Leatherstocking K-12
Library & Information Skills Scope & Sequence through our Points
of Collaboration. They are
organized by Learning Standard at each level (Elementary, Intermediate, and
Commencement). They are designed to kindle collaborative learning experiences
in the areas identified as being appropriate for information-based leaning
experiences. The possibilities are
extensive. This project hopes to give teachers
a starting point for developing more different types of learning experience for
their students by working with their School Library Media Specialist.
We
hope that this Points of Collaboration
will be the means to link classroom teachers from their target Performance
Indicators to the School Library Media Program at appropriate junctures to
teach content at the same time as library and information literacy skills
through information-based learning.
