The population was 22 net generation students aged 18-24, who were enrolled in an Introduction to Information Resources course. The study was designed to better understand challenges students face when performing online computer-mediated information work. The critical incident technique was used to describe and categorize problems encountered with technology use and information seeking and gathering relative to established information literacy and technology competency standards. The findings support that net generation students have differing levels of ability when using technology to find and display information, and that all students require training in the use of technology applications and search strategies in order to perform course-based information work effectively.
