JEAN HENDERSON

Biography: A qualified librarian, having previously worked in education for over 30 years, Jean is now an e-learning consultant.  She has managed the development of online courses, a digital template, an Information Gateway to over 2000 resources for FE and with partners recently won the CLA Beacon Award.

Title: Information handling skills

Summary: An information rich society is often confusing.

  • Where can you go to get the right information?
  • Are you even sure what the right information is?

The online content of a resource developed by the speaker consists of 23 generic learning bites to support students in developing skills such as using and retrieving information, planning, searching and evaluation.  Using these learning bites as building blocks, 5 themed scenarios have also been created to illustrate these skills.
