Student Shortcomings - Anything but Masters of Technology
-
To absolutely no one’s surprise, youngsters prefer interactive systems to passive ones
-
they do exhibit fairly strong basic technology skills
-
the report indicates that younger users have real difficulty choosing good search terms.
-
There is a lot of anecdotal evidence and plagiarism is a serious issue
-
The report indicates there is no hard evidence that young people are any more impatient than are adults
-
Another key area of deficiency is the ability to evaluate information that they obtain through electronic media
-
There is little evidence that this (information evaluation) has improved over the last 10 to 15 years
-
he speed of young people’s web searching indicates that little time is spent in evaluating information, either for relevance, accuracy or authority
-
Students also show a real preference for visual information over text
-
On the other hand, one real positive, students are indeed able to multi-task
-
students are in need of “a mental map of how search engines work”
-
as well as greater a vocabulary to give students the ability to move “from natural language” in search queries so as to “consider synonyms or other alternatives.”
-
findings of these studies raise questions about the ability of schools and colleges to develop the search capabilities of the Google Generation to a level appropriate to the demands of higher education and research.”

However, the report indicated that these users are anything but “expert searchers.”
-
Students in fact really, really like activity and therefore like to cut-and-paste. The report notes, “There is a lot of anecdotal evidence and plagiarism is a serious issue.”
-
The growing belief is that technology has ultimately made students more impatient and added to their need for instant gratification. The report indicates there is no hard evidence that young people are any more impatient than are adults.”
-
In fact the study indicates that students often fail to evaluate such information at all.
