Teacher Guide invaluable. Transforming the Internet into your very own World Desk is not just about process. Teacher Guide encourage students to think critically about their information access. For example, in Chapter 6, students learn to evaluate information sources. In cooperative learning groups, students create their own evaluation tool and then analyze actual sites on the World-Wide Web.
Students then communicate their findings in formal presentations to the class.
Suggested discussion starters guide you and your students through straight-forward discussion of the Internet and its information sources. Use the World Desk Teacher Guide independently or in concert with the World Desk Student Handbook to help your students make smart use of the Internet.
