Here is the Driver Training course for the 21st Century! Designed for students in grades 7 and up, this innovative program enables students to pass their Information Superhighway "driver's test" by learning to navigate the Web in a controlled setting with six high interest Websites ("Teen Movie Critic", "Beverly Hills 90210", "American Gladiators", "Supercars Past and Present", "Amazon River Explorer", and "Abandoned Missile Silo Adventure"). They will learn appropriate use of the Net and master e-mail essentials, from using a password to setting up an account -- all before they go online. The course includes a "rules of the road" section which can be customized to reflect patron use policy at your school or library, a section on Netiquette, and a hypertext glossary. The accompanying Teacher's Manual shows how to divide the tutorial into a field-tested, four-day instructional program, and also contains information on system requirements, set-up, and installation; ways to customize the program for your e-mail programs and equipment, as well as the name of your school or library throughout; a five-part instructional plan to help avoid potential bumps in the road; a copy of the skills test with an answer key; a model school Internet use policy to be signed by a parent or guardian, and a reproducible, wallet-sized Information Superhighway Driver License form. Here's everything you need to affordably, quickly, and safely bring your students up to speed on the Information Superhighway!
