Loretta Martin reflects on how her teaching of information literacy has evolved to incorporate more internet resources as her students are more media and internet literate than she is. She allows students to choose their own resources, which are usually from the internet rather than textbooks. Prior to the lesson, she realized from videos and readings that her students relate more to the internet and media than she does.

We have projects and topics that require my students to research or solve a problem by finding the information from sources other than their textbooks. Although I sometimes require they have at least one resource from a printed venue, most of the time I leave the choices about the resources they want to use up to them, which is usually the Internet.

3. Thoughts (continued) I realize from the videos, readings, and my knowledge of where my students get their information, that my students relate more to the Internet and other media than I do and are probably more media and Internet literate than I am in many ways.
