TL blogger Cheryl Oakes asks this question in her recent post (http://www.techlearning.com/blogs/25352). She writes "The Google it! mode of education today should force all educators to let go of the notion that we hold the keys to knowledge." What do you think?

I think that Bloom's Taxonomy (the digital version) is a great place to start. I hear teachers on my campus complain all the time that kids just "google" the answers to their assignments.
The thing that's missing is the information the questions are asking. There's a whole shift in thinking that needs to take place. In the past we used to ask for quite a bit of simple information (definitions especially) that currently can just be "googled."
Bloom's makes you develop more personal or at least more complex questions that aren't really "google-able."

Bloom's is a good place to start.

I think rather than "google proofing" we should be educating our students in ethical practice. Its the whole "when you cheat you only cheat yourself philosophy." If you are concerned about a control c control v issue then a couple of simple questions should help you find out if the understanding is authentic. The first thing I do when setting a research or essay assignment is google the question - this way you'll have some idea about content that may be copied directly from a website. Google is a tool for information - we need to teach our students about it's ethical use and develop critical thinking skills with regards to web based content. The information is all there - this is not a bad thing, they still need to know how to use it.
