IL Assessment Measures

 

Project SAILS (Standardized Assessment of Information Literacy Skills, review their handouts from ALA)

UCLA Library, Information Competence at UCLA: Report of a Survey Project

 

Information literacy student behaviors: Potential items for the National Survey of Student Engagement From College and Research Library news. Breaks down skills by standards.

 

A new Checklist of Information Competencies for College Students is available at:

http://www.calstate.edu/LS/SystemwideResources.shtml

The Checklist was developed to be a succinct list of essential competencies, and it is divided according to lower and upper division skills. We hope that it will be useful in collaborations among libraries serving two- and four-year institutions, in planning and assessing library information literacy programs, and as a resource for course-related instruction, etc.

The writers of the Checklist come from both California State University and California Community College libraries. We welcome your comments and are interested in hearing about ways in which the Checklist is being used.

 

 

Have a look at the Canadian study done in 2003: Information Literacy: Study of Incoming First-Year Undergraduate Students in Quebec (http://library.concordia.ca/services/users/faculty/infolit-crepuq.pdf). It has a few questions related to how well students trust certain sources of information.
