I found a great tool to use with my students to teach them how to better use the Google search engine. This mini presentation goes over the general directions for narrowing a topic search and then gives students an activity to do in order to practice these new topic search skills. Perfect for a prep activity to do with students before beginning a research project!! check it out.
First go to http://google.com/educators/6_12.html. Then Go to "General" and download the pdf file for "Success in Teaching Teens to Search the Internet: Playing a New Google Game.

Katy--This sounds great. Nothing like a game to make learning fun. Ties into the article by Lippincott, that we need to have the technology skills integrated with context. (Missed you Wed!) Lynette
