Thanks, Liz and Group,
I forwarded the message that arrived earlier on LM_NET to my brother who is
head of the sonography department at the UofA in Little Rock (see his
message below Liz's original message). He liked the reference for evaluating
web sites so much that he recommended it be incorporated into the symposium
they have planned for online teaching/learning in July. You are correct,
Liz, we all seem to be dealing with the same sorts of problems at all
levels. (Even us retired folk need to know this.)

Fascinating article on the future of libraries; very thought provoking and
exciting. Interesting to read that even Harvard Medical recognizes that many
of their students don't know how to search their medical databases
effectively and in many cases, don't know they exist! I never cease to be
surprised at how similar our problems are at all levels, Enjoy!

This came from my retired librarian sister.
Jan does the TwT have any guidelines for students to critically evaluate web
sites and information? This might be a good topic for the "The Teaching
with Technology Symposium" in July. I hope I can get back for it.

It also should be incorporated into syllabi. I am grading term papers
today, and there are more and more URLs referenced and fewer and fewer books
and journals.
