supposedly digital native students have no real information literacy? unfortunately no surprise.

A recent study looking at the intersection of college students, librarians, and research questions.  Maybe the internet just further complicates things, but was there really a time in the past when students did know how to do this well?  Or when librarians had the magic lesson that was the effective teaching of this that somehow isn’t being done now?   I can’t recall ever really being “taught” these skills in a specific sense.  Instead they were things “learned” over years of school (mostly graduate school) and practice and then learning to (try to) teach other students?
