15 Must Have Google Lessons Plans to Teach Students Effective Search Skills ~ Educational Technology and Mobile Learning | Information and digital literacy in education via the digital path | Scoop.it

Google is one of the primary search engines students turn to when doing their research. On the face of it, searching Google seems as simple as typing in a search query and waiting for returned results. In fact,  effective Googling is way trickier than that.

You can infer theories-in-use by examining actions.

Do a little research and you'll discover that a big fat "if" has been placed out in front of the old adage "practice makes perfect." Practice makes perfe

Listen, understand, act: social media for engagement | Jisc Inform / Issue 39, Spring 2014 | Information and digital literacy in education via the digital path | Scoop.it

Not long ago, social media was a phenomenon viewed by many in education with some suspicion: useful, perhaps, for marketing departments to issue press releases, but surely not a serious tool for academic or professional purposes? After all, isn’t Twitter just celebrity chit-chat?
