Hands-On Activities Science exploration and discovery can take place almost anywhere! When learners are actively engaged in science activities, they often gain better understanding of scientific principles, have better retention, and enjoy the learning process more than when they are taught through passive techniques. Encourage your family, friends, and people in your community to explore science. Use some of the activities suggested below, or visit science websites to find other interesting experiments to try. Inquiry-Based Activities in Math and Science Activity Worksheets from These worksheets provide guidelines for performing a variety of stimulating activities. Each worksheet contains a list of materials needed to conduct the activity, questions for focusing the student's learning, suggestions for tailoring the activity for students with disabilities, and optional resources for expanding the topic. The worksheets identify the targeted age groups for each activity, but most of the activities appeal to all ages. Activity Worksheets from Math Power at Home The activities from Math Power at Home emphasize applications and problem solving, estimation, and conceptual understanding. Learning is built around hands-on work, group activities, in-depth exploration, interdisciplinary projects, and the use of calculators and other tools.

Tomorrow's illiterate will not be the man who can't read; he will be the man who has not learned how to learn."

Information literacy in New Zealand report on a lecture tour In early 2000, Professor Peter Underwood was invited by the President of the Commonwealth Library Association (COMLA), Elizabeth Watson, to be the keynote speaker at a seminar on information literacy and related matters, to be held in Christchurch, New Zealand. The discovery that another major conference of librarians (the Library and Information Association of New Zealand and Aotearoa) was to take place immediately prior to the seminar provided an opportunity for him to submit a paper for that, also. Subsequently, he received invitations to extend his stay to provide seminars at the University of Otago, Dunedin, and, on the North Island, to the members of the Tertiary Alliance. In all, he spent the period 13 - 29 October, visiting both the North and South Islands. The report, which is available as a PDF file, contains summaries of the papers of all speakers at the conferences and other events, together with hyperlinks to associated materials.

Information Literacy (Gen St 391) Winter and Spring, 1998 Nana Lowell, Geri Bunker, Jill McKinstry and Debbie E. McGhee 98 -10 October, 1998 SUMMARY Information Literacy as a Liberal Art was offered as a two-credit course (GenSt 391) in Winter and Spring quarters, 1998. The course provided an introduction to information resources "in an electronic environment," and enrolled primarily student athletes and EOP (Educational Opportunity Program) students. Short pre- and post-tests assessed student experience, skill level and knowledge, and a post-course instructor debriefing yielded a set of recommendations based on the test results and experiences over the course of the quarter. Students showed increases from pre- to post-test in both self-reported and objectively assessed knowledge. Recommendations centered around integrating information and technology literacy into undergraduate education campus-wide. THE COURSE Information Literacy as a Liberal Art was taught by University of Washington (UW) librarians (two per section). The course presented information retrieval and use as a three-step process: Find what you want searching and evaluating online resources Get what you want retrieving information, including articles, books, documents
