Choosing a topic General versus specific Useful websites PowerPoint to teach method Disciplines http://lassfair.wetpaint.com/page/Descriptions+of+Soci al+Studies+Disciplines

What direction am I going? Create an outline Set a goal Brainstorm what you know already Ask yourself questions

Finding background information Books- review OPAC; teach how to use the public library’s website! Internet- teach what kind of websites to use and NOT use Subscription databases- World Book Online, EBSCO, Gale How deep you go depends on your grade level

Evaluating your information Teach how to identify scholarly material What makes a good website? Organize your information– is there information you will not use?

Citing your resources Teaching it the old fashioned way– MLA style (or name your poison) iPad apps make it fun! Free websites that do it for: easybib.com, World Book Online, and many more!
