New look for ACRL Framework sandbox

The ACRL-IS Framework for Information Literacy Sandbox has changed its design, I think, in particular, to suit mobile devices more. The Sandbox enables people to share and reuse teaching and learning materials that connect with the ACRL Information Literacy Framework. The sandbox contains lesson plans, slides, activity sheets etc. that you can reuse in your own teaching. A new feature is that it showcases a few selected resources on the home page. You can still search by discipline, ACRL IL frame, type of institution etc.
As an example, the most recently uploaded item when I looked was Source Evaluation Myths "This online guide provides an overview of four common source evaluation myths that might prevent students from being able to effectively evaluate online sources. Information Literacy Frame(s) Addressed: Authority is Constructed and Contextual"
