Today's students will become tomorrow's knowledge workers. How can
librarians and teachers help children develop the critical thinking
and information problem-solving skills they will need to be
confident and flexible users of information in the 21st century?
This unique manual adapts the innovative and effective iSearch
research process for grades three through eight. Here is a
blueprint for helping students formulate questions leading them to
personal discoveries, as well as strategies for teaching them to
fashion those discoveries into information of their own. In
addition to the educational theory behind the unique iSearch
information seeking process, the authors provide lesson-plans,
techniques, and tools for making the information search process an
adventure for students. Easy-to-use lessons tied to current
technology applications demonstrate on-line teacher/librarian
collaboration, online research tools and Web 2.0 resources. You get
great tips for incorporating on-line journals, notetaking tools,
graphic organisers and online products and presentations. The final
chapter focuses on authentic assessment. There are examples and
links to formative assessment tools and rubrics that will let you
and your students know they're doing a good job. There's even a
companion wiki site with easily reproducible handouts, electronic
student products created using the iSearch process, and an
opportunity to join the discussion on the digital iSearch. Tech
savvy students disconnected from teachers become more motivated by
these instruction methods. Using this effective guide, you'll be
able to use the iSearch methods to help your students develop the
crucial search skills called for in the American Association of
School Librarian's Standards for the 21st Century Learner and ISTE
(International Society for Technology in Education).
