and then double check when they use

this material, through oral citations,
organization of evidence, type and variety
of evidence, reliable and credible sources.”

16. Not enough time in the semester to
incorporate information literacy and core
curriculum.
Students don’t “care about” good
research and Googling is the easy
way out.
No clear definition of what students
should be capable of doing and what
instructors should be teaching.

searching for answers or material?
•“Google searches (or other search
engines) and I am always amazed how
many students solely use Wikipedia as a
source.“

• 4 categories for Information and Technology
Literacy lot.
• Using a ranking system from 3 to 0.
• Creating a rubric for assessment.
