  1. Trip Tic to GPS (gather, plagiarize, “so what”?): Navigating in the “Information Google Can’t Provide World”

  2. Are our students ready for college? Project Information Literacy http://www.projectinfolit.org FINDING CONTEXT: What Today’s College Students Say about Conducting Research in the Digital Age So far, we have found that no matter where students are enrolled, no matter what information resources they may have at their disposal, and no matter how much time they have, the abundance of information technology and the proliferation of digital information resources make conducting research uniquely paradoxical: Research seems to be far more difficult to conduct in the digital age than it did in previous times. Head, Allison J., PhD, and Michael B. Eisenberg, PhD. FINDING CONTEXT: What Today’s College Students Say about Conducting Research in the Digital Age. Project Information Literacy.

Finding information! • Finding books: classification and catalogs • Going beyond Google and Wikipedia • Determining the best kinds of sources • Knowing different types of sources: scholarly/peer-reviewed journals, primary sources, article vs. journal • How to choose a database (what IS a database?) • Use of key words • How to cite correctly and avoid plagiarism • And some are just scared about libraries The issue is often quality, not quantity
