has more to do with students’ perceptions that school
is boring and largely irrelevant to preparation for life outside school...The challenge for today’s teachers, largely digital immigrants, is to continue to provide students with the legacy content of the old curriculum while providing future content to prepare students for life in the 21st century" ( Considine et al., 473)]]> 2017-10-26 01:55:36 UTC https://padlet.com/olivia_e_greenfield/pr5ythnzcl7j/wish/200662294 olivia_e_greenfield https://padlet.com/olivia_e_greenfield/pr5ythnzcl7j/wish/200664028 "As television penetrated American living rooms in
the 1960s, Marshall McLuhan warned us that television
constituted much more than mere entertainment.
Societies, he argued, are always shaped more by the
nature of their communication technology than by the
content it carries and conveys. Television represented
a sensory revolution" (Considine et al., 474)]]> 2017-10-26 02:09:29 UTC https://padlet.com/olivia_e_greenfield/pr5ythnzcl7j/wish/200664028 olivia_e_greenfield https://padlet.com/olivia_e_greenfield/pr5ythnzcl7j/wish/200664515 2017-10-26 02:14:08 UTC https://padlet.com/olivia_e_greenfield/pr5ythnzcl7j/wish/200664515 olivia_e_greenfield https://padlet.com/olivia_e_greenfield/pr5ythnzcl7j/wish/200664755 "Wade
and Moje (2001) noted
the importance of expanding
our concept of
text beyond traditional printed materials. Film clips,
websites, photographs, graphic novels, music, editorial
cartoons, lyrics, and advertisements can be both informational
and motivational. Poor response to reading,
and schooling generally, especially among boys, is
often the result of unsuitable and unengaging texts ( Considine et al., 475).]]> 2017-10-26 02:16:25 UTC https://padlet.com/olivia_e_greenfield/pr5ythnzcl7j/wish/200664755 olivia_e_greenfield https://padlet.com/olivia_e_greenfield/pr5ythnzcl7j/wish/200665015 While there has been unreliable information shared since the creation of language, the internet often serves as a space for people to write whatever they feel as fact, even quoting facts that prove them wrong as those that prove them right! Manipulation of material is everywhere. The internet can be a very scary place. The following picture, from the article by Laurie A. Henry, gives great guidelines for how to make sure you are looking at a reputable source with the acronym "SEARCH".]]> 2017-10-26 02:18:54 UTC https://padlet.com/olivia_e_greenfield/pr5ythnzcl7j/wish/200665015 olivia_e_greenfield https://padlet.com/olivia_e_greenfield/pr5ythnzcl7j/wish/200665462 2017-10-26 02:23:55 UTC https://padlet.com/olivia_e_greenfield/pr5ythnzcl7j/wish/200665462 olivia_e_greenfield https://padlet.com/olivia_e_greenfield/pr5ythnzcl7j/wish/200665718 Looking for all of the information a citation asks for is also a great way to realize if your source is reputable or not!

This is an excerpt of what that study found: 

“When analyzing the data across all 11 students and two different tasks (reading within multilevel websites and using search engines), we observed skilled readers regularly and, without exception, actively applying a range of inferential reasoning strategies, especially forward, predictive inferences, as they searched for information on the Internet” (Coiro, 231).]]> 2017-10-26 02:28:42 UTC https://padlet.com/olivia_e_greenfield/pr5ythnzcl7j/wish/200665966 olivia_e_greenfield https://padlet.com/olivia_e_greenfield/pr5ythnzcl7j/wish/200666193 2017-10-26 02:30:32 UTC https://padlet.com/olivia_e_greenfield/pr5ythnzcl7j/wish/200666193 olivia_e_greenfield https://padlet.com/olivia_e_greenfield/pr5ythnzcl7j/wish/200666302 https://www.romoland.net/cms/lib/CA01902709/Centricity/Domain/172/ccss-ela-wordle.png]]> 2017-10-26 02:31:17 UTC https://padlet.com/olivia_e_greenfield/pr5ythnzcl7j/wish/200666302 matthew_e_austin https://padlet.com/olivia_e_greenfield/pr5ythnzcl7j/wish/200666581 Coiro articulates that the information found on the Internet is in the form of a hypertext, which she extends by stating:

"Consequently, in comparison to printbased texts, hypertexts require readers to take a much more active role in determining the quality and coherence of the texts they read (Burbules & Callister)" (Coiro, 219).]]> 2017-10-26 02:33:22 UTC https://padlet.com/olivia_e_greenfield/pr5ythnzcl7j/wish/200666581 matthew_e_austin https://padlet.com/olivia_e_greenfield/pr5ythnzcl7j/wish/200667129 The hypertext is an environment in which the knowledge provided is laden with access to more knowledge (e.g. hyperlinks, drop-down boxes, options, etc.). As Coiro cites:

"Hypertext describes 'a kind of informational environment in which textual materials and ideas are linked to one another in multiple ways' (Burbules & Callister, 2000, p. 43)" (Coiro, 219).

This presents the distinct possibility of confusing the reader with too much knowledge, if not also provided the right skills to navigate this saturated environment.]]> 2017-10-26 02:38:38 UTC https://padlet.com/olivia_e_greenfield/pr5ythnzcl7j/wish/200667129 matthew_e_austin https://padlet.com/olivia_e_greenfield/pr5ythnzcl7j/wish/200671298

" Adolescents, along with the larger population, are developing new literacies in order to negotiate their media worlds.  I like the term, multimediating, (Doneman, 1997; also discussed in Lankshear & Knobet 2003) as a way to define this new competence with digital media. It captures the complexity of simultaneous use of multiple media. Rather than multimedia, which focuses on the noun, the production of media, Doneman opts for the verb to capture the active processes of engaging in a variety of media environments" (O'Brien, 36).]]> 2017-10-26 03:11:51 UTC https://padlet.com/olivia_e_greenfield/pr5ythnzcl7j/wish/200671298
