contents Qualitative Assessment of Student Attitudes toward Information Literacy Scales, B. Jane Lindsay, Elizabeth Blakesley Student Attitudes Computer Assisted Instruction Information Literacy General Education Librarians Distance Education Online Courses Lifelong Learning Many distance degree students at Washington State University enroll in General Education 300, a one-credit information literacy course taught online by librarians that exposes students to activities and materials that support the ACRL information literacy standards. In a final assignment, students write about the origins, applicability, and future use of information literacy and their newly minted skills in this area. We used ATLAS/ti, http://www.atlasti.de/, to analyze the text of these assignments and explore student attitudes toward information literacy. The majority of students articulated a broad view of information literacy not tied to a specific course project or to the library as a place. (Contains 21 notes.)
