Publisher's Synopsis
The Internet can be a powerful classroom learning tool if properly understood and utilised. This guide coaches both educators and students on using the Internet to solve complex problems. Teachers are introduced to how the Internet is organised and how to access its resources without too much technical information. Students are given eight problem-based learning scenarios that put them in the role of a particular character. Successful completion of these scenarios requires extensive Internet research and all the steps of problem solving, including mapping and defining. Teaching notes and reproducible problem logs are included.
