The Media Skills Checklist that was created by the Georgia Library Media
Association in collaboration with several County systems in Georgia. It
has
not been officially adopted by the State but many, many LMS here use it
as a
guideline. While it does not specifically mention Big6, you'll notice
that it uses many of its premises: takes notes from resources using
skimming; identify the steps of the research process, etc.

"Yesterday, I attended a Media Literacy workshop for all of my county's
Media Specialists and computer reps. Discovery Channel, a Maryland based
company, has sponsored the creation of Media Literacy curriculum for
Maryland teachers to use to educate our students on the topic. The
curriculum which was developed under the guidance of Dr. Renee Hobbs of
Babson College is available on the Internet at:
http://www.assignmentmedialit.com
Maryland teachers are given all the accompanying materials, books,
videos,
snap cards etc. While these items are NOT available to you, the
curriculum
(which is leveled elementary, middle and high) on the Internet may help
generate ideas for how you can teach media literacy. There are
glossaries
for each level that would be of use as well. I highly recommend that you
look at this site to start your gears turning as to how you can
incorporate
this topic in your curriculum."

The Ontario School Library Association (http://www.accessola.org/osla/)
released a library curriculum in 1998, "Information Studies,
Kindergarten to
Grade 12" (http://www.accessola.com/action/positions/info_studies/). It
is
not provincially mandated but it is a good jumping off point for Ontario
school libraries. The entire provincial school curriculum was revised in
1996/1997 so this ties into our Ontario Curriculum
(http://www.edu.gov.on.ca/eng/document/curricul/curricul.html) nicely.

OTHER RESOURCES
Here are two more resources that I am using in my task of writing a K to
12
Information and Communications Technology Curriculum for a bilingual
(English-Spanish) school in Colombia, South America.
The International Society for Technology and Education publishes a 375
page
book: National Educational Technology Standards for Students: Connecting
Curriculum and Technology for $29.95 that is an excellent resource
covering
Kindergarten to Grade 12. For more information:
http://cnets.iste.org/index.html
RESEARCH STRATEGIES FOR MOVING BEYOND REPORTING -- pages 3-9, the scope
there may be helpful. This book is published by Linworth Publishing
(www.linworth.com)
ALA has an Information Literacy Toolkit by Jenny Ryan and Steph Capra,
c.
2001. There is a second volume which covers 7-12, and both have a CD in
the
back which covers the entire spread. A wonderful resource.
