Pathfinders

**Pathfinders** are organized sets of resources, targeted to a specific subject or topic.

 Pathfinders typically combine:  - "hotlinks,"  - information about related print resources within the collection,  - links to databases, and/or  - research tips and strategies.

 In the past, building a webpage for a specific topic (or a set of pathfinders) was time consuming. Applying Web 2.0 tools can make the "building process" more efficient for //you// and the application process more engaging for your //students.//

"Terezin" was created by Jen Grupp, a fourth grade teacher at Washington Elementary School (Bloomington Public Schools, District 87). It's an excellent example of a jog created to guide students through challenging content. The jog was created for students to experience as part of their //Number the Stars// novel study.
