"I think and think for months and years. Ninety-nine times, the conclusion is false. The hundredth time I am right." Albert Einstein
The In2Edu site provides an astonishingly comprehensive range of approches and resources for teachers - including fabulous support information literacy learning in schools.
The site features an information literacy programme/model called STEPS, born of a desire to help pupils make sense of and be creative with information. What makes STEPS unique is the range of variations that enable you to adapt it to different curriculum areas and different ages.
All 5000 best education links/favourites/favorites on this site were updated/verified July 2007.
They have developed a full information literacy programme similar to BIG 6/ SAUCE etc. It is supported with a range of downloadable resources and online activities to practise skills. Materials, posters, teaching tools and ideas are available across many curriculum areas. In fact, it takes ages to navigate all the dropdown menus and links to discover the wealth of information available. Rich tasks and deep thinking is included, and Blooms taxonomy underpins the rubrics.Check out the downloads available, or navigate to the 'rich topic' curriculum choices below.

Hi Judy
Writer of in2edu here.... appreciate the words that you write here. Always fun to put together something that others appreciate. My latest venture with some other teachers is a more focused one at http://sciencepostcards.com
