Abstract

With the Grade 1–9 Curriculum Guidelines, learning is not inside classrooms any more. Students need to explore the information outside the classroom, such as in library or on vast internet, nevertheless, there are full of bad as well as good information on internet, and therefore the core competence of students is established on the ability of collecting and integrating right information in the future. But the training of such a capability is seemed to be ignored in the elementary curriculum. In our study, we cooperate with Taipei Municipal Tien-mu elementary school library to design and develop an online courseware that assists teachers in enhancing students’ general capacity of information in the instruction of using libraries, and the series of courseware is suited for the elementary school students from third grade to sixth grade. We also propose the key points while developing the courseware of elementary schools’ library information to be referred by other research workers with the same goal.
