Steps
for this Project
You will follow the
research process as you work through this Research Module. The steps you
will follow are:
Questioning
Ask yourself this guiding question: "Given the responsibility
to plan a 30 minute Veteran’s Day Assembly for your school,
what would be most important to include?." In order to
answer that question, you will focus in on smaller questions to
guide your planning and your research.
Planning
You and your teammates will decide on a graphic organizer
for collecting information, and you will decide how to divide
the work among yourselves.
Gathering
You will visit various web sites to gather information.
Sorting
and Sifting
You will gather enough relevant information to answer your question.
You will need to sift out the information that is not useful.
Synthesizing
You will use the information you gathered to answer the essential
question and plan an assembly.
Gather, Sort, Sift,
Synthesize
Repeat these
steps until you have all the information you need.
Evaluating
You will evaluate your work at each step during the research process
to see what is going well, and what you can go back and improve.
Reporting
You will create a schedule for a Veteran's Day Assembly, along
with a 5-minute PowerPoint presentation teaching some important
information about Veteran's Day, to share your answer to the essential
question.
