[LM_NET] Research Class

[Lori Goldman <lgoldman@ROCKLANDCDS.ORG>]

I hope everyone is finding time to enjoy their summer.  In the meantime, 
I am seeking some information pertaining to research classes.
Last year I taught an 8th grade research class.  It covered the library 
catalog, print resources, databases, search strategies, web evaluation, 
citations, etc. etc. etc.  I also was able to collaborate some with 
teachers to use this class time for their research papers.

This year I have been asked to teach it again in addition to a 6th grade 
research class.  These classes meet once a week.  I am wondering if 
anyone has taught something similar and if they would be willing to 
share their curriculum.

On another note, if anyone has any suggestions for interesting research 
projects it would be greatly appreciated as I will also be teaching an 
upper school research class (Gr 9-11).

If there is any interest, I will post a hit.

Thanks,

Lori
