Response to a Criticism about Using Twitter in the Classroom

Tue, 03 Nov 2009 14:26:50 -0000

Highlights and Sticky Notes:

The Keyword Blog: Kermit the Frog Search Challenge (Information Literacy Games)

Sun, 18 Oct 2009 17:44:24 -0000

Information Literacy Games: Finding Kermit

This blog post features a great video of Kermit the frog singing It Ain't Easy Being Green. It follows up with an explanation of a search game that can be used with the whole class in a lab or on an individual workstation. It's part of a free series of online information literacy / information fluency games available from 21cif.com.

Finding Kermit was the inspiration for one of the first Internet Search Challenges created by Dr. Carl Heine. The task is to track down a picture of Kermit ready for graduation in the least amount of time. The search game is embedded on the page so you can try it without going to the main site.

Many teachers use this as a whole class lab activity. Put up a search challenge and then it's off the races! Most of these games were developed for middle and high school students. Adults find them challenging as well.
