[LM_NET] TARGET: Electronic vs. Print Search Activity

[Ellen Nosal <enosal@SBCGLOBAL.NET>]

I am mulling over the idea of developing an activity that would have students 
search for answers to questions using a variety of sources.  Perhaps small groups 
or teams assigned to using print, database, and WWW sources, and compare results 
and search times.  I'm thinking of calling it "Reseach Rally", or something like 
that.  I don't want to reinvent the wheel here because this has been done before.  
Can anyone point me toward some good examples for grades 7 & 8?
   
  Happy New Year!
