Overview
“The illiterate of the future are not those who can't read or write but
those who cannot learn, unlearn, and
re-learn.” -Alvin
Toffler
As a veteran teacher who has been teaching the research paper for almost
40 years, I constantly look for new ways to present it and new ways to
arrive at the same knowledge about the process without forgetting the
goal: To produce a quality creation based on an effective investigation
of material previously written about a topic. Keeping Toffler’s
statement in mind, I decided to merge technology with the research
product and to re-learn how I teach research. Having used computers for
research for years, the students and I were ready to go beyond the
internet searches for sources. We were ready to apply technology to the
material we had collected. A website was a logical solution. Toffler
would be proud of my students using today’s technology to create a
product and share it with others.
