The article I will be reviewing is titled "Students Lack Basic Research
Skills, Study Finds" by Paige Chapman. The article was published
November 9, 2010. The article was focused on a report by Alison J.
Head, called the "Project Information Literacy Progress Report." The
article mentions how students in today culture are dependent on
technology when it comes to research such as search engines like
Google. Because of those students often have to deal with information
overload and that students today have problems evaluating information.
The article seems to focus on the brake away from standard sources,
such as libraries, toward web based sources. The article was very
helpful and backed up by good source material. I just did not agree
about how it said it gave people less of an ability when it comes to
evaluating information to me personally.
