1. Comparison of Online Learning Behaviors in School vs. at Home in Terms of Age
and Gender Based on Log File Analysis.
This article is about a case study centered on comparing the behaviors of learning in
home versus at school. It also studies the differences in behavior in the home as
opposed to public school. The results were that students that are home schooled
learn at a slower pace, but perform better on tests than those at public school.
Another conclusion was age and gender is not affects in behaviors whether at home
or in school.

A Vocational College Example.
In this article a study of how students characteristics may affect online learning
readiness is discussed. The result of the study was that college students are ready
for online learning, but there is room for improvement in order for them to be
successful.

The skill of being informationally literate is important when being, or having
the desire to be, a teacher of the 21st Century. It is a valuable skill to have because it
allows you to access useful information and use it strategically in the classroom. The
ability to know where to find reliable sources and cite the sources properly is
important for our era. The answers to many individuals questions are online, and
being informationally literate allows them to find an accurate and reliable answer to
their questions.
When an individual is informationally literate they possess the ability to find,
access, and use reliable information, cite the source of that information correctly,
and understand the use of a copyright. These topics are relevant to information
literacy because if they are not performed correctly, you could be providing false
information and if you do not cite sources correctly you could be committing a
federal offense.
As a student it is important for me to be able to access reliable information
and be able to cite it properly. These skills are important for me because when I
need to find information for a report or a project I need to be able to find reliable
sources with useful information. After accessing this information I need to be able to
cite it correctly. Without proper citation I could plagiarize the work of another. If I
am informationally literate I will posses the skills to conduct these tasks in the
correct manner. It is also important for me to be able to access reliable information
as I am pursing a career in teaching. Teachers, as well as students, need to be able to
find reliable sources online. As teachers prepare lessons they can look on the
Internet for guidance or information. It is crucial that teachers find reliable sources
because they are not only learning the information for themselves, but they are
passing that knowledge along to their students as well. Students rely on teachers to
teach them useful, accurate, and reliable information. As evidence that teachers are
doing so, they need to cite the sources they use as well. Otherwise, it is plagiarism.
Another reason that teachers need to know how to properly cite sources is so that
they can teach their students how to correctly cite sources. The student relies on the
teacher to know this information. Teaching the students how to properly access
information and cite the sources follows the ISTE standards for teachers.
One of the major ISTE standards for teachers is promoting and modeling
digital citizenship and responsibility. When a teacher teaches their student the
correct way to cite a source, they are modeling responsibility in that student. It
takes responsibility to not plagiarize the work of another and to correctly use the
information they found and then to cite the author of that work. Another ISTE
standard for teachers is engaging in professional growth and leadership. Again,
teaching the students to cite the source of another is engaging the students in
professional growth and leadership. In any occupation, professionalism is required.
Giving credit where credit is due is a principle that teachers need to teach their
students from a young age. This helps the students engage professionalism. The
students also need to design and develop digital-age learning experiences. Learning

how to surf the Internet to find additional knowledge and useful information is
engaging in developing digital-age learning experiences.
Today, technology is becoming commonplace in schools. Because of this
change, teachers and students must be well acquainted with information literacy.
Everyday new technology is developing in the world. It is very important that
teachers understand how to find useful information and share it with their students.
Likewise it is important that teachers are able to properly cite sources. Teachers
then need to efficiently teach their students the same skills. As technology is
adapting, so must those accessible to it.
