This document outlines the scope and sequence of information literacy skills for middle school students for the 2010-2011 school year. It covers developing research topics, identifying potential sources, developing and revising search strategies, recognizing responsible and ethical use of information, and evaluating sources and information. Each section lists the relevant content standards and objectives for students to learn key skills in each area of information literacy.
The Common Core movement has provided opportunities for librarians to partner with content area teachers. Using the Model Curriculum for School Library Programs, librarians and teachers can work to embed information literacy skills in the content area curriculum.

A Strategic Approach: GenAI in EducationPeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.

The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence.
