Continents and Oceans Pathfinder

I collaborated with a teacher to integrate information literacy skills into a content area lesson. This experience showed me how important it is to introduce information literacy skills in conjunction with the content area instead of introducing them separately. Allowing the students the opportunity to use these skills while completing authentic tasks really makes a difference in their learning. I really enjoyed collaborating with the teacher and we both learned an important lesson: One of the most important things to keep in mind is to be open minded and listen to and respect the ideas of the other party. Doing this allowed us to keep the lines of communication open and helped us to truly collaborate.
