Julie Ungier, our school Librarian and I attend a meeting several weeks back at Kent State University. She wrote the following blog about the events of that meeting.
A few weeks ago, I joined a select group of school librarians and classroom teachers in a focus group for the TRAILS project. Has anyone heard of this or used this great resource? It's a free real-time web based assessment for students assessing information literacy skills. Currently there is a test for 6th graders and a test for 9th graders. Teachers or librarians can instruct students to take this test individually online, and access the results of individual students and the class as whole. It's a great way to assess where students stand in terms of information literacy. Try it out! http://www.trails-9.org/ and let us know what you think.
