Evidence supports the effectiveness of pedagogical approaches like
inquiry PjBL and collaborative teaching in enhancing learning
outcomes (e.g. Hmelo-Silver et al., 2007; Murata, 2002). Few studies,
however, have examined the use of these strategies for students to
help them gain competencies in information literacy and IT skills. In
the light of recent recommendations about collaborative teaching
with the participation of the school librarian to support the
implementation of inquiry projects (Kuhlthau et al., 2007), this
study combined collaborative teaching and inquiry PjBL, and
examined its effects on primary students' information literacy and
IT skills. The findings of this study serve as evidence to support a
viable teaching strategy to cultivate these skills that students need
today.
