Critical thinking

introducing concepts to encourage studnets to refine their thinking, broaden or narrow their topic/point of view, etc.

So many people operate under the mindset of assuming information/sources are true until proven incorrect, rather than being critical of all sources and checking credibility by default

I think that teaching students critical information literacy will inherently lead to transformative learning. Becoming aware of the systems in place that affect information access, creation, and distribution leads to a shift in students' frame of reference

The heart of education (autodidactic or systemic) is, to me, change / metamorphosis. I don't need to reinforce "it is known" stuff without test. Finding out what is similar/different with previous, collecting supporting/challenging ideas/voices/phrases for rumination. etc.

Students can often have better experiences learning when they work together

Getting beyond headlines and memes

fostering curiosity, showing students how to continuously look for high quality information, even after they 'walk across the stage'!

Transforming how students think about information, but also how they see themselves as participants in using and creating information

# data[].attributes.body
Changing how a person interacts with media and participates in that information space. Encouraging more intentional engagement with the information landscape.

I see infolit as a key tool to transform the way students think about information and personal views. Beyond all the academic stuff, students begin learning how to live evidence-based lives that resist misinformation and unfounded belief.

Information literacy gives people the skills they need to engage in artifice of their own knowledge and mind. It's self-transformation.

You're not just teaching research skills, but also helping students reflect on how and why they seek information, and how their cultural backgrounds shape those processes.

learners are active participants in, consumers of, and contributors to, the information landscape

Empowerment - teaching students to find information and navigate their way

# data[].attributes.body
Information literacy... or thinking critically with information is transformative in and of itself. It is also constantly evolving. Requires some ability to explore and not be discouraged by "failure." push through barriers rather than just get frustrated and stop...

# data[].attributes.body
I think if you adopt a sociocultural theory of information literacy then our IL practices and perspectives would transform or change based on the community in which we're immersed. The information that is important, holds value, shapes your world view is shaped by the community that creates it, shares it, etc.
