Netsavvy : Building Information Literacy in the Classroom

Great book to look at the Intenet in a very different way: curriculum and information literacy. The book examines the implications of information overload from a teacher's point of view and focuses on the critical tools that are needed to develop information and communicative skills in all subject areas. The book gives the list of all the skills needed for adressing information, and teaches the 5 steps of information literacy: asking, accessing, analyzing, applying, and assessing. It provides scope and sequence for informational and technological fluency: activities, resources, timelines, and ideas for assessment. Great handbook!
