Improve Computer-research Skills
Like many college students, Jose Juarez carries around a pocket-sized computer that lets him watch movies, surf the Internet and text-message his friends.
He’s part of "Generation M" - those born after 1985 who 【51】______ up connected to everything from video games to cellphones.
"For us, it’s everyday life," said Juarez, 18, a freshman 【52】______ California State University at Sacramento (CSUS)
【53】______ , educators are now saying that not all Generation M-ers can synthesize the piles of information they’re accessing
"They’re geeky (与网络交往的), but they don’t know what to 【54】______ with their geekdom," said Barbara O’Connor, a communications studies professor who has been involved in a nationwide 【55】______ to improve students’ computer-research skills.
In a recent nationwide test to 【56】______ their technological "literacy" – their ability to use the Internet to complete class assignments - only 49 percent correctly evaluated a set of Web sites for objectivity, authority and timeliness. Only 35 per cent could correctly narrow an overly 【57】______ Internet search.
About 130 Sacramento State students, including Juarez, participated in the
experimental test, 【58】______ to 6,300 college students across the country.
The hour-long assessment test is conducted by Educational Testing Service. It is a web-based scavenger (食肉动物) hunt 【59】______ simulated Internet search engines and academic databases that spit out purposely misleading information.
"They’re very good at 【60】______ in and using the Internet, but don’t always understand what they get back," said Linda Goff, head of instructional services for the CSUS library.
"You see an open search box, you type in a few words and you 【61】______ the button," said Goff, who is involved in the testing.
"They take at face value 【62】______ shows up at the top of the list as the best stuff."
Educators say that these sloppy (马虎) research skills are troubling.
"We look at that as a foundational skill, in the same way we 【63】______ math and English as a foundational skill," said Lorie Roth, assistant vice-chancellor for academic programs in the CSU system.
Measuring how well students can "sort the good 【64】______ the bad" on the
Internet has become a higher priority for CSU, Roth said.
CSU is considering 【65】______ a mandatory (强制性的) assessment test on technological literacy for all freshmen, much as it has required English and math placement tests since the 1980s.
