In an era when students can easily cut and paste information found on the Internet into a report, little learning takes place in the execution of traditional assignments (a.k.a. "bird" units). This resource for teachers describes alternative activities that require students to analyze and synthesize the information they collect in the library media center. Each of 15 sections presents a model that may be used to create assignments followed by examples that are varied in their topics and grade levels. Distributed in the U.S. by Greenwood Publishing Group.
