Funny, I started Day One with the students by showing a Wes Fryer vodcast about "Engaging, not Enthralling" that I found on Cindy Barnsley's Thinking 2.0, then followed that with a Christian Long post on "what an A paper is." Now I'm saving this one to use as a "lesson" on searching habits of mind. I love the "searching think-aloud" activity you suggest. On a larger note, I'm noticing that edublogger posts are starting to make good substitutes for much of the "schooly" readings we normally use to "teach" things like this.
