Resource - Based Learning

School Library Association of Queensland (SLAQ) (2008). Resource-based learning guidelines.

This article was great as it was simple to read and understand. It also gave step by step guide of how to plan a resource-based unit of work.
Along the way it also told you the role of the school, library, and teachers.
It also stated the benefits of the cooperative planning and teaching.

Using the information in this article it really will make it quite a simple procedure to begin to implement this style of learning in the library. I'm sure that it will be time consuming and many mistakes will be made along the way, but I'm willing to put in the effort to give it a go. Now all I need is a teacher to cooperatively plan with to enable the successful implementation of RBL.

Qu'Appelle Valley School Division and Regina Catholic Schools, Saskatchewan Ministry of Education (2004-2005). Resource-based learning, in Teacher-Librarians: Supporting Student Learning project.

This article didn't really offer any new insights that haven't already been stated in the other readings we have read so far.
However, after reading all of these articles I don't understand why we are not all teaching like this anyway.
