Envisioning Effective Digital Instruction: Moving Away from Just-in-Time Information Literacy Instruction to a More Meaningful Approach
Courtney Lewis
Knowledge Quest, v50 n3 p8-15 Jan-Feb 2022
The pandemic prompted Courtney Lewis and her fellow school librarians to dig deep and acknowledge that their information literacy instruction followed a just-in-time philosophy. Essentially, limited just-in-time information literacy instruction is like teaching a kid how to play soccer for seven days out of each year and expecting them to be a great player when they graduate. To move away from this philosophy, Lewis envisions how to create a self-paced digital curriculum rich in data for students, teachers, and librarians and outlines potential best practices for online information literacy instruction.
