, Portfolio Assessment 4: Information Literacy Instruction Programme
Explain the various elements of an information literacy instruction programme that will meet the information
needs of the target group in your information agency.
4.1 Clearly define information literacy instruction.
Information literacy instruction is a program designed to teach individuals how to effectively and critically
find, evaluate, use, and create information in various formats and from various sources. This includes
teaching individuals how to navigate information resources, critically evaluate the reliability and credibility of
information, and use information ethically and legally.
In order to meet the information needs of the target group in our information agency, the information literacy
instruction program should include the following elements:
1. Needs assessment: Conducting a thorough assessment of the information needs, existing skills, and
knowledge gaps of the target group. This will help in customizing the instruction program to meet the
specific needs of the users.
2. Learning objectives: Clearly defining the learning objectives of the instruction program, which should
align with the information needs of the target group. These objectives should be specific, measurable,
achievable, relevant, and time-bound (SMART).
3. Curriculum design: Developing a curriculum that covers the key components of information literacy,
including information seeking strategies, evaluation of sources, citation and referencing, and ethical use of
information. The curriculum should be tailored to the specific needs and interests of the target group.
4. Interactive teaching methods: Incorporating interactive and engaging teaching methods, such as hands-
on exercises, case studies, group discussions, and interactive tutorials. This will help in actively involving
the users in the learning process and enhancing their retention of the information.
5. Use of technology: Integrating technology into the instruction program, including demonstrations of how
to utilize various digital tools and databases to access information. This will help the target group in
effectively using technology to meet their information needs.
