Research Process Models for the Classroom
Information is increasing rapidly. We need to help students learn to deal with information overload and build critical thinking skills and conquer information literacy. In order to do this, students need to learn:
- when information is needed
- where to find it
- and how to evaluate, modify, and utilize it.
We need to provide the structure to assist students in the information search process that will increase their critical thinking skills and help them create superior end-products. Below are some sites to help in this process.
