4.TT.1.1 Use a variety of technology tools to gather data and information (e.g., Web-based resources, e-books, online communication tools, etc.).
Other Information:
When I worked in the computer lab last year I noticed that students didn't really know how to narrow down a search or evaluate the links they came up with. This video will help with that process.
