    Teaching Information Fluency describes the skills and dispositions of information fluency adept searchers. Readers will receive in-depth information on what it takes to locate, evaluate, and ethically use digital information.

    The book realistically examines the abilities of Internet searchers today in terms of their efficiency and effectiveness in finding online information, evaluating it and using it ethically. Since the majority of people develop these skills on their own, rather than being taught, the strategies they invent may suffice for simple searches, but for more complex tasks, such as those required by academic and professional work, the average person’s performance is adequate only about 50% of the time.

Projects

  • Project Apollo

    The founders of Precision Healthcare Ecosystem launched Project Apollo – the Study of Me™ – because we experienced the frustrations of having complex, chronic, undiagnosed, or hard-to-treat conditions. Some of us are also caregivers, supporting loved ones on their healthcare journeys. We have struggled to find our own advocacy and empowerment, and now want to help others to find their power and their voices.
