Abstract

Web literacy ­ the ability to build, connect and explore web components ­ is quickly becoming inextricably linked to information literacy. Experiential learning is essential in teaching the future of information discovery. In this workshop, we will review useful Open Educational Resources and use code playgrounds to create customized search widgets using HTML, CSS, & JavaScript. We will then briefly examine how to apply these concepts to develop other tools, including plugins and browser extensions.
