Digital Literacy--A necessary part of our job


Hello edtech friends!
So, we can talk all day about the cool things you can do with your students.  But, there is one topic that often gets left out until a student comes to us with a report/research that is a bit wonky.  Maybe the only cited website is wikipedia, or maybe the website is not a reputable one.  How can we teach our kids to use their inquisitive natures to question their resources?  Well, an article at teachbytes.com will help.  Here are 11 hoax websites that you can use with your students to evaluate websites.    I have created a website evaluation printable that your students can use as they learn to stop and think before they believe everything they read online.  Click here to download that form.  Have a great day!
