• In Event: RTD- Information Literacy and Learner Outcomes

Short Description

Despite information literacy instruction being important for inquiry-based learning, very is known about ILI in diverse contexts. This study explored first (external), second (internal), and third order (design thinking) barriers for in-service teachers who taught withinin K-12 poverty contexts. First-order barriers related to lack of training, misalignment on ILI vision between administration, and others. Second-order barriers highlighted question-asking and inequitable access due to paywalls. Third-order barriers focused on iterativing for multiple forms of visualization.
