I was interested in your story abou...Thanks, Ruth. I was interested in your story about the student author displays with few (no) citations or references. I can understand how this would be disturbing (and an obvious problem) but I am afraid that it is more common than most of us would probably want to think. If students have never been taught to properly cite their sources (starting in elementary school) then they wouldn't necessarily even think about it. It is disheartening to think that a university instructor didn't make that a requirement of the assignment, but again, it does not always cross people's minds. Who should be responsible for ensuring that teachers AND students do something even this simple? I don't know the answer to that...but I know in K-12 a qualified, trained TL could make a big difference in beginning to have those conversations with students and teachers about digital citizenship and intellectual property.Joannehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15759498202590649670noreply@blogger.com
