Thing #19 Web 2.0 Awards

This is pretty cool - easy way to find the most efficient sites for what you need. Will link to the blog I'd say...

School and libraries can put this up in the resources part of the library to get kids searching on their own and also show them the best way TO search for their particular needs.

I do however worry about some of the 'instant gratification' elements of this tool. Kids want to get the work DONE and often don't check for accuracy or fluidity at all. This just helps that happen faster. Then again, at least they turn something in, lol!

That is the new part of all our jobs - to help students navigate all this stuff & discern the credible from the chaos!
