    This is the kind of learning students really dive in to, learn so much from, and never forget. How many NY State middle school and high school teachers will pass on it because they have too much to teach? The irony...

shared by Steve Ransom on 09 Nov 11 - No Cached
  • Who’s to blame? Not the students. If they’re naive at Googling, it’s because the ability to judge information is almost never taught in school.
  • And by the time kids get to college, professors assume they already have this skill.
  • Students quickly gain the ability to detect if a top-ranked page about Martin Luther King Jr. was actually posted by white supremacists.
  • ...5 more annotations...
  • “crap detection 101,” as digital guru Howard Rheingold dubs it, isn’t easy. One prerequisite is that you already know a lot about the world.
  • group of college students
  • Pan grimly concluded that students aren’t assessing information sources on their own merit—they’re putting too much trust in the machine.
  • High school and college students may be “digital natives,” but they’re wretched at searching.
  • In 1955, we wondered why Johnny can’t read. Today the question is, why can’t Johnny search?
  • Steve Ransom on 09 Nov 11
     
    "Google makes broad-based knowledge more important, not less. A good education is the true key to effective search. But until our kids have that, let's make sure they don't always take PageRank at its word."
