    Great idea to make a Questioning Toolkit for a school. This way students can build on various types of questions for research and students will all be on the same path for research - developing great research projects from great questions.

    I think it is great how they have revamped the Bloom's Taxonomy. It really incorporates technology into the creation part and allows for its use in other areas as well. Students who are using the higher order thinking skills will get much more out of learning than if they are just memorizing.

  • Require that students use note cards when they research and instruct them to write no more than one or two sentences on each card. This will force students to read websites and select the most important information
  • Request that students submit their note cards as a part of their grade
  • Familiarize students about what good sources of information are by introducing them to databases and directing them to specific websites they can use to research their paper.
  • ...2 more annotations...
  • Databases suitable for elementary students are EBSCO Primary Search, Kids Search, and even a database for students in the first through third grades named Searchasaurus
  • teaching students Boolean Logic search operators such as AND, BUT, OR and nesting and truncation search techniques.

    A great idea from the article is having students turn in their notes as part of their grade. This gives a teacher a chance to evaluate note taking skills along with their final project.
