Regarding Internet searches, students need to be taught where to start and how to define or limit their searches. They also need experience in how to determine what is factual vs what's not factual. It would be helpful to understand the difference between a search engine and a metasearch engine.
Regarding social networking, students need to understand who their audience is. They need to be warned about the perils of posting personal information online. Students need guidance in time management, as well. Social networking is great, but it is what my husband and I call a "time-suck!"
