Born to Be Wired: NetSavvy and Communication Literacy for an Information Age

The Information Age is upon us! The development of the World Wide Web as a research tool has brought the Internet with all its flavors of information - text, photos, audio and motion video - into the public consciousness overnight. As the Web has exploded into our consciousness as a full fledged information medium, tele-communications has suddenly gone from being a specialized thing done by propeller heads to something that is taken for granted. While the sheer magnitude of available resources is beyond our comprehension, we ain’t seen nuthin’ yet! This presentation will carefully examine IDD (Information Dysfunction Disorder) and proposes a remedy - InfoSavvy. InfoSavvy is a multi-level, integrated and interdisciplinary, problem solving information literacy framework based on the 5As of information fluency.

Presenter: Ian Jukes

Audience: Leadership Teams, District Administrators, Principals, Technology Coordinators, Regular Education Teachers, Special Education Teachers
