Information Literacy Tutorial
BILT: Brevard Information Literacy Tutorial. BILT, the Brevard Information Literacy Tutorial, is a recent development of Deborah Anderson and the Palm Bay Campus of Brevard Community College designed: '...to help students learn basic information literacy skills necessary to effectively find, retrieve and evaluate information..." [Information Literacy Weblog]
This "tutorial" is just a very well-laid-out set of web pages with explanations and tips about this college's library and its resources. It's really very nice, but I was hoping for something a little more interactive, with a quiz, for example. (I keep thinking of the self-paced workbooks that many of us were having students work through in college libraries twenty years ago.) On the other hand, this one encourages teachers to collaborate with librarians to incorporate various modules into assignments, which is always better than having students simply read the web pages. I certainly recommend this tutorial to high school librarians as a model they could use as well.
