Information Literacy Skills
December, 1998
"My researching skills were tremendously
developed. It is imperative to know how to obtain information, sort through
information and utilize information. All three of these areas were well taught
in this class. The library exercise provided me with a wealth of knowledge on
how to obtain information from the campus library. Now I know how to look up
books, journal articles and key words from the Library of Congress."
May, 1999 "Since the development of research skills is very important, it is imperative
that experience with all media be explored. Since direct access (to physical
therapy services) is a new idea, a vast amount of research was needed to answer
the questions proposed by the client. As time progressed, the sources that were
normally used in research were becoming too narrow. However, because of the
skills that were learned during this semester, the focus of the research was
able to be routed in new directions. Several medical journals, electronic newspaper
articles, and several Internet sites were used in the research of direct access.
Because of the frequency that these new media were used, there was a vast amount
of growth as a research."
