All too often we hear about the horrors of technology. But what about the educational opportunities it presents? The answer to that question and much more can be found here. Written by the founder and director of LEO (Librarians and Educators Online), this manual provides a wealth of pre-tested, ready-to-go activities and lesson plans to help children develop the critical thinking skills they need to become savvy Internet users. A useful resource for parents as well as teachers and librarians, this book explains basic Internet functions. It shows exactly how the Internet can be a positive force in education, as well as ways to integrate the Internet into student learning. Creative and innovative ways to use the Internet in schools, libraries, and homes are suggested. Learning activities range from Internet basics to more advanced lessons using the Web, e-mail, and chat groups to foster active learning. You’ll also find sections on Internet safety and how to evaluate and cite electronic information.
