Course Material
We think it’s important that the training programs are tuned towards local context and needs. But that doesn’t mean each host has to ‘invent’ the whole program. From 13 – 15 August 2007 in Gaborone , Botswana a workshop ‘Developing Information Literacy Skills for Problem-Solving as Part of Lifelong Learning’ was held as a Pre-Conference Workshop for the IFLA conference in Durban. Leading facilitator of the workshop was Dr Jesús Lau, University of Vera Cruz , Mexico (jlau@uv.mx). Christina Tovoté reported on the workshop. Jesús Lau allowed us to publish the material that was used. It can be downloaded here How_to_Create_an_Institutional_Infolit_Program and used for your workshop.
If you are developing material or will use existing material, we ask you to share it with the other host institutions via this webpage. Please mail the material to: boekhorst@uva.nl
Go for the material used in the workshops to the concerning page.
