So .... as i was undergoing the collection phase of Kuhlthau's ISP for assignment 2, part A (Feeling a clearer sense of direction and confidence where my Thoughts were: defining, extending, and supporting the focus and my Actions were: selecting information relevant to the focused perspective of the topic and making detailed notes) I began to read the NSW DET, Information skills in the school book and i wish i had had the sense to look at it for the previous assignment – it even outlines the ways the executive, grade and faculty groups, individual teachers, parents and community not to mention the TL and library can integrate the teaching of information skills across the school – they’re talking about an ILSC (without naming it as such) and the ways to achieve it!!!.
"Where the teacher librarian plays an active role in the integration of information skills into the curriculum, library skills lessons or programs become obsolete, and the full range of information skills are taught in context instead" (NSW DET, 2007, p.16).
