Module 3
Information Sources, Introduction

In this module, you will:

  • analyze InTime videos to determine how teachers effectively used the Information Sources in their lessons
  • analyze InTime videos and suggest improvements or additions teachers could have made to better apply use of Information Sources to their lessons
  • select appropriate standards and benchmarks for your Lesson Plan project

In this module, we will examine various types of electronic information sources and how they can be used to enhance academic lessons.

We will examine World Wide Web (WWW) Information Sources, Electronic Information Sources, and Audio/Visual (A/V) Information Sources. We will examine the InTime standards to see how InTime defines these standards and how they delineate the levels of proficiency.

One of the greatest areas of educational technology is electronic information sources. The three categories we will examine have opened a wonderfully rich multimedia world to what was previously depicted in static text. Electronic information is a very large topic, and teachers must know how best to use it so that their students do not become lost in a sea of information. Let's take a look at how some creative teachers are making the most out of electronic information sources.
