Online Resources for
Students and Educators
I have provided
Internet pathfinders to support students or educators in
building background knowledge, researching topics related
to the content of the sample strategy lessons, and inquiring
further into lesson topics.
An Internet pathfinder is a tool that helps
researchers and inquirers focus on reading and answering questions
rather than locating the Web sites themselves. Pathfinders
provide students and educators with resources that have been
preselected for their authority and for their relevance to
the task at hand.
Several of these pathfinders have been illustrated
by students after studying the pathfinder topic. If the learning
objective had been for students to locate and annotate resources,
they could have been invited to create pathfinders for their
own use and that of their local or global classmates. Authoring
pathfinders with adult facilitation is a worthwhile project
for library student aides and adult volunteers as well as
educators.
My
goal is to keep the pathfinders up-to-date. If you find a
