Information Literacy is the future and our students will be well prepared for what lies ahead if we can nuture this skill set effectively before they graduate.
Yes, we know that the skill set is more important than knowing lots of stuff. But you would be in a better position than me to see that knowing lots of stuff still sees you make it to the next level of education - therefore we need to keep teaching it, often by traditional means which are time effective.
