FORMAT Paperback LANGUAGE English CONDITION Brand New Publisher Description Metaliteracy in Practice will provide inspiration for librarians and educators in need of up-to-date and thought-provoking information literacy curricula and instructional approaches. Editors Trudi E. Jacobson and Thomas P. Mackey, respected leaders in distance education and library instruction, reframed information literacy in their acclaimed previous book, Metaliteracy: Reinventing information literacy to empower learners, which provided an inclusive framework that encompasses all the newer literacies such as digital, visual, cyber and media literacy. Metaliteracy in Practice follows on from this book, placing its concepts firmly in real-world practice and delivering a compilation of innovative and practical teaching ideas from some of the leading thinkers in library and information literacy instruction today. Each chapter takes readers through the process of using the metaliteracy framework in new and exciting ways that easily transfer to the classroom and to work with students. These ideas are grounded in teaching traditional information literacy competencies but brought up-to-date with the addition of methods for teaching and learning about metacognition, information creation and participation in learning communities. The case studies contained in this collection detail the hows and whys of curricular design for metaliteracy, suitable for both beginners and seasoned professionals.

Metaliteracy, Networks, Agency and Praxis: An Exploration - Paul Prinsloo Review These essays offer ideas on equipping students to be agents, and this book is recommended to academic librarians. -- Daniel Boice * Catholic Library Review *Metaliteracy in Practice is a valuable contribution to the literature of library and information science and explores many of the salient questions and concerns of instruction librarians and other educators, including how we may help students explore the more complex, conceptual dimensions of information literacy, such as the social, political, and ethical dimensions of information creation, distribution, and use. The books collected chapters may serve as catalysts for librarians to reexamine their work with students and to consider ways in which they may partner with other educators to integrate information literacy (including metaliteracy) into academic programs and curricula. -- Communications in Information LiteracyMetaliteracy in Practice is a welcome addition to Jacobson and Mackeys body of work on metaliteracy. Faculty in many disciplines are likely to find the case studies useful, but academic instruction librarians who have the opportunities to teach or co-teach semester-long courses will get the most out of this collection. Instruction librarians with limited opportunities beyond oneshot research workshops will not find anything directly applicable here, but may find the case studies useful in engaging with faculty around ideas related to metaliteracy. -- Jenny Dale * Technical Services Quarterly *The concept of metaliteracy forces us to wrestle with what it means to exist in a time in which technology continues to alter the way we use and communicate information. Metaliteracy in Practice offers a solid foundation to do just that while at the same time also providing some thought provoking ideas about how to incorporate metaliteracy in a wide variety of pedagogical environments. -- Drew Virtue * Research in Online Literacy Education (ROLE) * Review Quote These essays offer ideas on equipping students to be agents, and this book is recommended to academic librarians.
