3 : 30 PM	Le développement des habiletés informationnelles par la mise en œuvre réussie et concertée du Profil TIC des étudiants du collégial dans les cours et les programmes / The development of information skills through a successful and concerted implementation of the ICT Profile for College Students in courses and programs (André-Mathieu’s Lobby) (french activity) \| Animator: Huguette Dupont (Granby), with the participation of REBICQ members \| Documentation : Note taking (private access) See description Teachers, ICT advisors, academic counsellors and the staff of college libraries notice that despite widespread practices of documentation training, despite initiatives for integrating the ICT Profile in courses and programs of study and despite many research assignments required of students, the information skills of college graduates are quite often far from what is expected for them to pursue university studies and also for their professional and even personal life in our digital society. Members of the Regroupement des bibliothèques collégiales du Québec (REBICQ) will join us in this discussion. This workshop will first allow participants to take ownership of elements from the ICT Profile linked to information skills. This will be followed by a discussion of local practices on documentation training and the integration of the ICT Profile in order to highlight best practices and problems to address. The third part will focus on developing a common vision for supporting students and collaboration in the field.
