Aligning Information Literacy Terminology to STEM Disciplinary Language Used in the Scientific Method
Buljung, Briannaa; Vuletich, Seth; Dunn, Lisa
Education for Information, v39 n3 p269-286 2023
Incorporation of information literacy into the Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics (STEM) curriculum can be a challenge for academic librarians, in part due to different terminology than used by disciplinary faculty colleagues. Aligning terminology used in information literacy frameworks with the scientific method can provide a means of demonstrating the role of information literacy in STEM research. This paper maps the knowledge practices of the Association of College and Research Libraries "Framework for Information Literacy in Higher Education" with an example of the scientific method. The resulting map provides an alignment of the different terminologies being used and visualizes the role of research skills throughout the process of conducting scientific research.
