Global Educational Goals, Technology, and Information Literacy in Higher Education
Snavely, Loanne
New Directions for Teaching and Learning, n114 p35-46 Sum 2008
Three interconnected aspects of higher education and information literacy are essential. The first is global educational goals and the place of information literacy within those goals. The second is new research on higher education effectiveness and the role of information literacy for successful learning. The third is the role technology plays in the rapidly changing environment in which we live and its impact on the development of information literacy, as well as on higher and global education. These three aspects are critically interwoven, as this article examines where higher education will take us in the future.
