Their information literacy skills and knowledge of reference sources vary, but since all seventh graders and new eighth graders are required to take one trimester of Visual Studies, all entering students are taught basic reference tools. In this article, the authors describe how they collaborated to develop a lesson for Visual Studies classes. This project has helped their students develop their information literacy skills such as the ability to search for a basic reference source, develop a research plan, and to extract relevant information for a need. The authors applied visual literacy lessons to incorporate text and images into a creative visual product. Students were able to see that library research has practical uses beyond traditional products such as essays. |
