It’s been written as an essential guide to getting the most out of using the internet and internet technology for studying. Areas covered include: web 2.0 technology (wikis, blogs, Podcasts and RSS) that students may encounter at university, good web practice (netiquette, tagging, online writing) and using external resources for educational use (citeulike, Google scholar and del.ici.ous).
Each guide focuses on a single crucial aspect of study – for example, the importance of planning an essay, or referencing and understanding plagiarism – giving students step-by-step guidance, handy tips and clear advice on how to approach the important areas which will continually be at the core of their study ethic.
