The EDUCAUSE Center for Applied Research (ECAR)has come out with its 2005 study on students and information technology. StevenB observes that while students use search engines, "they clearly do not use those resources exclusively." Barbra Fister reports, though, that "students report using computers only 11-15 hours a week, with searching library databases at less than an hour." Christopher D. Sessums, following the Chronicle article, reports that the study "shows Students desire a balance of technological and human contact."
