Research Time/Demands Research requirements have risen. Students need to know how to: – conduct research – determine reliable sources – cite sources correctly – track information/data – narrow down an abundance of information – keep all their time on-line ‘school appropriate’ – meet deadlines and due dates for multiple classes/assignments

KSD Resource References Old Page: (Do not use “brown page”…it is going away.) New Page:

Taking Notes with OneNote Open OneNote Dock to Desktop – Allows you to take notes while you research. – Students can take screen clips (which will give webpage and date/time information). – Nice way to organize by class, subject or topic (easy to move around at a later day/time). Notes can be taken with split screen in Word or other programs as well.

Your turn to explore Open the link for the ‘New’ Page Goals: – Navigate through the site to find resources in differing subjects. – Try taking notes (maybe make a list of interesting sites you could use with your class next fall).
