Packed with ideas and instructional activities that cut across all content areas, this engaging book provides a comprehensive framework for promoting vital Web literacy skills in grades 3-8. Teacher-friendly special features include helpful graphics, sidebars, practical tips, and nearly 100 reproducibles. Using a research-based, classroom-tested model of Internet inquiry, the authors explain the "whats," "whys," and "how-tos" of helping diverse learners: (1) Locate useful information sources on the Web; (2) Navigate the contents of a website; (3) Critically evaluate what they read online; (4) Synthesize the results of an Internet inquiry; and (5) Express new knowledge in their own words. This book is divided into two sections: (1) Understanding Print and Web Literacies; and (2) The QUEST Model of Internet Inquiry.
