In FE college, we had an occasional class (as part of something else, can't remember what) that explained how to use the Internet to research properly, determine trustworthiness, and cite sources, and also how to use the library at a basic level. I'd assume that sixth-form colleges in England and their equivalent elsewhere do the same - but perhaps it's too late by then?
- keithpeter 9y agoI can reassure you that 'research methods' courses are mandatory for all students in the vocational only FE college that I do some teaching in. Taught by LRC staff. The plagiarism checker is active as well. Most of the level 3 award tutors set a small assignment within the first few weeks of the course to assess writing level and catch any issues like dyslexia &c.
