The good news is the kids are using the internet like crazy to get their information. The bad news is teachers don't know how to judge the validity of the information. Where can I find the way to determine that a source is valid? Should students be responsible for providing a search path? I thought maybe we should require students to provide biographic info and source of publication elsewhere than the net. If so, how can they get this? We are stymied because the info we're getting is super but we don't necessarily trust it. it is one thing to repeat over and over again to the students that they be careful. Once they see relevant info they download and cite everything. Help! TIA,vjl Viviane J.
