"To be ready for college, workforce training, and life in a technological society, students need the ability to gather, comprehend, evaluate, synthesize, and report on information and ideas, to conduct original research in order to answer questions or solve problems, and to analyze and create a high volume and extensive range of print and nonprint texts in media forms old and new. The need to conduct research and to produce and consume media is embedded into every aspect of today's curriculum." (CCSS, n.d., p. 4).

(Gambrell & Morrow, 2015, p. 349)

"In a context where anyone may

publish anything, higher-level thinking skills such as critical evaluation of source material become especially important online."

(Gambrell & Morrow, 2015, p. 346)

(Gambrell & Morrow, 2015, p. 346)

"One might even suggest that, over a lifetime, learning how to learn New Literacies is more important than learning a specific literacy of reading or writing." (Gambrell & Morrow, 2015, p. 344)
