I'm also interested in this issue! I was also wondering if anyone taught or thought how to distingish good websites from bad ones. irshat madyarov, TA, West Virginia University. Hi, Has anybody come across a website that gives tips to beginning readers on how to read online? I am * not* talking about sites that show how to navigate or evaluate web resources but more how to read, research and sift through information without getting overwhelmed. We have all transferred our skill at reading paper products to the electronic realm. I am wondering if anybody has deconstructed that process to help introduce new users to find what they want while keeping comprehension high. I am looking for ideas on: 1.understanding the set up of webpages vs. books 2. how to find the specific info you want within the page (scanning etc.) 3. how to maintain one's focus while going to another page or related tpoic 4. Any others you might suggest. Thanks, Steve Quann NELRC / World Education 44 Farnsworth Street Boston, MA 617.482.9485
