Help Seeking and Help Design in Interactive Learning Environments (2003, background): “There is also evidence that epistemological beliefs inﬂuence how students access information on the Internet and how they evaluate what they ﬁnd (Hofer, 2001; Wallace et al., 2000).”
How students evaluate information and sources when searching the World Wide Web for information (2009, background): “…search results, and evaluating and selecting sources and information (Duijkers et al., 2001; Fidel et al., 1999; Hirsch, 1999; Kafai & Bates, 1997; Koot & Hoveijn, 2005; Lorenzen, 2002; Lyons, Hoffman, Krajcik, & Soloway, 1997; MaKinster et al., 2002; Wallace, Kupperman, Krajcik, & Soloway, 2000).”
Using questions sent to an Ask‐A‐Scientist site to identify children's interests in science (2006, background): “Research on children’s use of the World Wide Web for learning has generally been conducted in school settings.”
Learning, Teaching, and Scholarship in a Digital Age (2009, background): “…in finding information online and in discerning the truth or reliability of the information they found (Hoffman, Wu, Krajcik, & Soloway, 2003; Holscher & Strube, 2000; Jones, 2002; Kafai & Bates, 1997; Kuiper et al., 2005; Livingstone et al., 2008; Wallace, Kupperman, Krajcik, & Soloway, 2000).”
Epistemic metacognition in context: evaluating and learning online information (2010, background): “Nevertheless, research has documented difficulty in recognizing the epistemic value of an information source or piece of information in younger students of different grade levels, from university (Mason et al. in press; Hirsh 1999 )t o high school (Brem et al. 2001; Clark and Slotta 2000) to middle ”
Source Evaluation, Comprehension, and Learning in Internet Science Inquiry Tasks (2009, background): “, 2007; Rouet, 2006; Stadtler & Bromme, 2007) and in the learning sciences more generally (Linn, Davis, & Bell, 2004; Wallace et al., 2000).”
A descriptive model of information problem solving while using internet (2009, background): “It is assumed that children (secondary education) rarely take the time to read a site in-depth and spend much time processing information (Kafai & Bates, 1997; Schacter et al., 1998; Wallace et al., 2000).”
