rapid change
How does the rapid change in technology, media, and society affect how we teach our kids to research?
We’re in a technology tsunami. Whether you love it or hate it, ultimately we have to figure out how to survive it and make it work for us.- Peggy Klaus

protocol #1: think, pair, shareUsing your nametags, find the person who lives/work closest
to you.
Have a short discussion with your partner: How does this affect kids? How does this
affect educators?

The visual cortex is 20% larger than
brains measured 20 years ago.
In tests, digital natives retain 90% of 100 pictures shown.
concerns about digital natives
Can students reflect?Are they critical thinkers?
Do they consider ethics and respect?Does their health suffer?
Are they too often bored and tuned out?
Can they function in a community?

who cannot learn, unlearn, and relearn.” - Alvin Toffler
protocol #2: final word

Using your nametags, find the person who is closest to you in number of years spent in
education.
What tasks are hardest for digital natives? For digital immigrants?
First person shares an idea for 3 minutes. Second person can then agree/disagree, but first person does not talk until 1 minute has passed. First person then gets 1 minutes to
have “last word.” Then switch roles.

favorite color.
Use the envelope of terms provided to define traditional vs. 21st century information
literacy.
protocol #3: reflection on a word
Traditional Information
Literacy Print resources are the main source of information and are considered to be the trustworthy and up-to-
date resources available.
Final products of research are usually in print format.
Focus is placed on relaying information and synthesizing ideas.
Students focus on finding the right answer and receive a grade when assignment ends.
Librarian is seen as a guide to navigating the physical space of the library.
The library is a space with four walls that closes at the end of the day.
One source of information is consulted at one time.
21st Century Information
LiteracyOnline resources are one of many sources of
information and must be evaluated for timeliness and accuracy.
Final products of research come in many formats due to the use of technology.
Focus is placed on evaluating information and forming new ideas.
Students focus on good information and learning continues when assignment ends.
Librarian is seen as a pathfinder to new resources of information in all formats.
The library is always open, with an online presence that extends beyond school.
Many sources of information is consulted as an information “stream.”

better search skills
Examine Results
Diagram Searches
DON'T (or at least try not to as much as possible for Mrs. Corey's sake :) ) . . .
• ask Google a question• George Washington's diary example
• include articles like THE and AND• The Who and WHO example
• use verbs when you could use nouns• Eat versus Food example
DO (or at least give this a try for Mrs. Corey's sake. It will help! :) ) . . .•Search Terms
•Find specific search terms
•Easy to Understand•Make sure your search is simple
•Exact Phrases•Put quotes around exact phrases
•Modifiers•Add modifiers like adjectives when needed
•Synonyms•Find synonyms to try multiple searches
