  • Information Skills Curriculum Guide: Process, Scope and Sequence. Chow, Cheryl And Others Curriculum Guides Elementary Secondary Education Evaluation Information Retrieval Information Sources Information Utilization Learning Resources Centers Library Instruction Library Skills Research Skills School Libraries Search Strategies Designed to assist educators in teaching information skills in a systematic way by integrating them into the kindergarten through grade 12 curriculum, this guide is intended to be shared by teachers and library media specialists. A reflection of recent study of the information searching and application process, the guide is not bound to any specific information system or technology and may be used in any school. The guide consists of: (1) a philosophy statement explaining the perspective from which the guide was written; (2) a detailed, 12-step description of the process of successful information searching and application of the results, which identifies the specific skills needed at each step; (3) a scope and sequence for the information skills curriculum, which suggests the grade level at which each step may be introduced, reinforced and/or taught to mastery, and identifies the level of each step in Bloom's Taxonomy of Educational Objectives; (4) a bibliography which includes seven background readings that support and/or further explain the information skills process presented in the guide; and (5) a form provided so that users of the guide may submit samples of successful lesson plans to accompany one or more of the steps in a future edition of the guide.
