Hi:
I am in the planning throes of a new course for the School of Education, entitled Information Literacy. I plan to use the AASL standards to frame my course with 6 topic areas: Organizing and Managing, Collaboration with Content, Sharing Curriculum, Media Sharing, Participation in Virtual Environments, and Communicating in Social Networks.

Any words of wisdom?
