Students do need to learn navigational skills to develop informational –literacy. Even when I provide a list of relevant links, and tell my students not to wander beyond the designated list, more often than not, they find it irresistible to jump on the Internet. Sometimes it is the freedom and control that they crave, but all too often students fail to give a designated Web site a chance. Rather than put forth the effort that is required to understand, they like to browse. But, they can lose track of time.  A student search can result in superficial learning, rather than an in-depth investigation.   So  students need to be able to evaluate sites and know how to navigate in an efficient manner. An evaluation form is an invaluable tool, encouraging analysis and decision –making.  I find that acronyms help students to remember: Four Nets to Better Searching from Bernie Dodge is kid friendly – perfect for elementary students. More search tips are available at one of my favorite sites Filamentality.
