| contents | Key Words in Instruction. The Student Information Scientist, Part I Callison, Daniel Media Specialists Information Scientists Information Literacy School Libraries Inquiry Teaching Methods Questioning Techniques Information literacy standards for student learning, indicators for student performance, and hundreds of collaborative lesson plans around the country give some indication of the skills students are expected to master as effective and efficient users of information. Hopefully the goal is that all involved in information literacy education become wiser consumers of information. In mastering the elements of information inquiry, teachers and school library media specialists acting as instructional specialists model, teach, and learn with their students the best ways to test and select information that is valid and relevant to solve information problems. This article discusses the process of Information Inquiry, which involves application of the ancient Socratic Method of teaching through self-posed and mentor-posed questions in order to gain meaning in today's Information Age. Further application of the Scientific Method gives a systematic structure to this process and places students and teachers in the role of Information Scientists. This analogy is explored as one that may open new paths for students and teachers to investigate not only phenomenon identified from typical subjects of study, but also to test and predict the value, relevance, and meaning of information itself. A list of resources for further reading is also provided. |
