  • "Mind-Blowing:" Fostering Self-Regulated Learning in Information Literacy Instruction Houtman, Eveline Information Literacy Library Instruction Independent Study Metacognition Academic Standards Library Associations Academic Libraries Program Implementation Class Activities Thinking Skills Formative Evaluation Summative Evaluation The new ACRL "Framework for Information Literacy for Higher Education" brings a new emphasis into our instruction on student metacognition and dispositions. In this article I introduce self-regulated learning, a related concept from the field of education; it encompasses metacognition, emotions, motivations and behaviors. I discuss how this concept could be important and helpful in implementing the related elements in the ACRL "Framework" and draw on the concept to devise strategies and activities that promote students' self-awareness and learning skills. This focus promotes a more learner-centered approach to teaching. The article also adds to the conversation on developing a self-reflective pedagogical praxis in information literacy instruction.
