Find the needle in the haystack
A student is confronted with milions of internet pages with information. And it is not enough to formulate a good search question. It is also very important to know how to evaluate the quality of the information your search question generates.
This book Word informatievaardig provides
- Strategies to find information quickly
- Criteria for the evaluation of sites and infomration
- Concrete methods for the processing of information.
The content of this book is based on research of the Centre for Learning Sciences and Technologies. Teachers, students and pupils of several institutions for higher and secondary education participated in the studies that resulted in this book: 'how to select, evaluate and process digital information'. Another result of this research activities is CELSTEC's workshop Informatievaardigheden (information skills).
The book is in Dutch and is published in the Hoger Onderwijs Reeks (higher education series) of Noordhoff Uitgevers.
