Tools for teaching media and information literacy. Mock Turtle writes "To celebrate International Literacy Day (which was September 8) and the beginning of the United Nations Literacy Decade (2003-2012), Canada's Media Awareness Network web site currently features practical Internet and media literacy resources that public and school libraries can use in their programming. The site includes interactive tools such as "Jo Cool or Jo Fool," in which students tour a set of mock web sites and test their surfing savvy." [LISNews.com] I tried out the "Jo" game, and it looks as though it would be fun to use with middle school students, or maybe even upper elementary. The rest of the site has plenty of good resources for teachers and parents. 7:08:38 AM     [comment []];[]
