Ensuring the Net Generation Is Net Savvy

The Information Literacy land of Confusion alerted me to new papers on the Educause website. The first one is 19 pages, and it defines terms like information literacy, information fluency and media literacy, then summarises some issues to do with student use of resources, and resonses to the situation (like tutorials, curriculum integration). It only seems to refer US work, which I think is a bit of a pity, but nevertheless it could provide a nice introduction or background document on the topic.

The second article is called How Choice, Co-Creation, and Culture Are Changing What It Means to Be Net Savvy (i.e. Web 2.0, Library 2.0, blogs, Facebook etc etc etc) and is one of the many items that can be found amongst the loads of useful content about learning & teaching on the Educause Resources section at http://www.educause.edu/content.asp?SECTION_ID=11
