S. Woolsey: Savvier Searching

Information Thresholds

  • Searching as strategic exploration
  • Research as inquiry

The goal of this chapter is to provide students opportunities develop and demonstrate skills to:

  • design and refine needs and search strategies as necessary, based on search results
  • understand how information systems (i.e., collections of recorded information) are organized in order to access relevant information
  • monitor gathered information and assess for gaps or weaknesses
  • draw reasonable conclusions based on the analysis and interpretation of information.
