- 17. ACRL framework: threshold concepts Authority Is Constructed and Contextual Information Creation as a Process Information Has Value Research as Inquiry Scholarship as Conversation Searching as Strategic Exploration http://www.ala.org/acrl/standards/ilframework
- 19. Frame: Authority Is Constructed and Contextual Information resources reflect their creators’ expertise and credibility, and are evaluated based on the information need and the context in which the information will be used. Authority is constructed in that various communities may recognize different types of authority. It is contextual in that the information need may help to determine the level of authority required.
- 20. Dispositions Re: Authority is Contextual and Constructed • Develop and maintain an open mind when encountering varied and sometimes conflicting perspectives
- 21. Dispositions • Motivate themselves to find authoritative sources, recognizing that authority may be conferred or manifested in unexpected ways.
- 22. Dispositions • Develop awareness of the importance of assessing content with a skeptical stance and with a self-awareness of their own biases and worldview.
- 23. Dispositions • Question traditional notions of granting authority and recognize the value of diverse ideas and worldviews.
- 24. Dispositions • Be conscious that maintaining these attitudes and actions requires frequent self-evaluation.
- 25. Implications for School Libraries How might the ACRL framework inform your school library practices? What’s the role of the school library in helping students best prepare for entering community college? How do these dispositions align with the AASL standards?
- 32. Key Finding: “Students who take at least some online courses are more likely than those who take only traditional courses to earn an associate’s degree or to transfer to a four-year institution.” Johnson, H. & Mejia, M.C. (2014) Online Learning and Student Outcomes in California’s Community Colleges. http://www.ppic.org/content/pubs/report/R_514HJR.pdf

Editor's Notes
- Higher than 5 year rates for first time freshmen
- The CSU is increasingly serving more low-income and first-generation students. Our graduation rates have increased over the years both overall and for these groups specifically. Pell funding provides students who otherwise would not have been able to afford college an opportunity to pursue their academic goals. It mediates in part a need to work while attending. Without access to Pell and a variety of other financial aid programs, many of our CSU students who earn degrees would not have had the opportunity to attend college.
