Welcome to Infoteach

Infoteach is intended to be a dynamic information base on teaching and learning in a library or information context. Originally developed as part of a UK National Teaching Fellowship project, the aim of Infoteach is to play a part in enabling librarians and information workers, in every sector, to be competent teachers and facilitators of learning. Infoteach is not about Information Literacy or Information Skills - it is about the teaching of these things.

How can I take part?

It will only work if you contribute to, edit, and build that resource - the community must own it rather than accept the received wisdom of a few. To that end, please add or edit 'articles' on anything that you feel will be useful to the knowledge base. It can be as simple as a suggested reading or a link to a Web page. It can be theoretical or it can be purely practitioner based. It can be an uploaded file or image. It can be a learning object, a case study or a tip for teaching.

The only criteria is that it is about teaching and learning in our context. If there is nothing there already on your topic then please create something - please don't wait for someone else to start the area (you can start it with as much or as little as you like). Use the Help page if you're unsure of how to add things - it really is very easy!

Remember that your input may be edited by others but it will remain in the history section of each topic - everyone's input is valued and will be respected.

Infoteach is a work in progress - and always will be. I'm committed to keeping it simple in design, open to all and flexible enough to contain something for all of us, experienced or new to teaching.

Those of you who have used Infoteach in the past will notice some changes. We have changed the software to try and beat the spammers that have plagued us before without, I hope, losing the basic look and feel of the original. So, let us have your comments, advice and suggestions but most of all your input.
