Two activities for students in the social foundations of american education course during the fall 2006 semester. The first activity involves comparing search results from the eric database and ask.com when searching for 'classroom management'. Students are asked to identify the types of results they get back and discuss the differences between the two search interfaces. The second activity requires students to find scholarly articles on educational theorists john dewey and lev vygotsky using various library databases, as well as a newspaper article on school vouchers or school budgets from their hometown newspaper. This document serves as a guide for students to complete these activities.
