Episode 14: Questions are the Answer

Monday, August 27th, 2007

As a leading teacher-librarian, Barbara Braxton knows about information literacy. In this episode, we talk with Barbara about the information process, the concept of literacy in the 21st century, the art of developing”thick questions”, and how to create tasks that minimise the need to plagiarise in the first place. Barbara is well respected amongst the Australian online teaching community and she has some great insights into how we get kids to use information. Oh, and a couple of political viewpoints as well….
