LIB 601 Libraries and Learning
          Fall 2012
What is the function of an
     information search model?
Ken Haycock:
An information process model, as a support
 structure, fosters the development of
 research, problem-solving and metacognitive
 skills through the collaboration of the classroom
 teacher and teacher-librarian. These concise
 models inform students of the problem-solving
 process and provide context for the assignment.
    When young researchers understand an
 information process model, they can
 comprehend the extent of the task facing them
 and the necessary strategies to complete it.

Advantages of a school-
             wide model
Haycock:
When teachers and students understand an
 information process model, they use common
 vocabulary to clarify terminology and label
 behaviors, each necessary to enhance
 metacognition.
    A school-wide information process model
 allows students to gradually develop expert
 use patterns that enable them to reduce
 reliance on the scaffold and to use the
 model in different contexts, both in
 and out of school.

Carol Kuhlthau’s ISP
Information Search Process
The Information Search Process (ISP) is
 a six stage model of the users’ holistic
 experience in the process of information
 seeking. The ISP model, based on two
 decades of empirical research, identifies
 three realms of experience: the affective
 (feelings), the cognitive (thoughts) and
 the physical (actions) common to each
 stage.

Need for inventory of
               expertise
 Building Guided InquiryTeams for 21st-
Century Learners
Teachers and school librarians experienced in
 collaborative team teaching have a good basis for
 implementing this flexible team approach. They
 can effectively build on what is already in place.
 The first step is for participants to take inventory
 of the expertise at the school—where are the
 strengths? What areas need to be developed? How
 will gaps be filled?

Big6™ Skills
  What is the Big6?
 Developed by educators
  Mike Eisenberg and Bob Berkowitz, the
  Big6 is the most widely-known and
  widely-used approach to teaching
  information and technology skills in the
  world.
 Some people call the Big6 an information
  problem-solving strategy because with
  the Big6, students are able to handle any
  problem, assignment, decision or task.
  Here are the six stages we call the BIG6.

The library media
 specialist should have
 numerous examples of
 research process models
 available for
 consideration by the
 faculty and can take the
 lead in teaching this
 concept to the faculty as a
 whole.
