Thing #3 Plan, Organize, and Synthesize Your Information

After perusing all our choices, I chose to make my storyboard using Power Point. There were multiple usable examples. Thank you for the excellent resources! Storyboards certainly would help students get organized on paper before booting up the computers. Saving on computer time would be a huge plus. Storyboards are an easily accessible, inexpensive, method available to all students who are in the throws of planning a project.

Thing # 2 Evaluating Information

After perusing all the evaluation choices, I would like to
thank our beloved County Extension Agent for these
sources...especially the flash presentation of Evaluating,
Selecting, and Citing. I could never get YouTube to play.
The SBISD page kept rudely popping up.
Examining all the forms (online and printable), my
conclusions are the following:
1. SHARE: My online Web site: Lycos.com./Here Be Dragons, failed
flat on the two evaluation forms I selected. The forms I chose to use
were the University of Maryland Library's check list and Kathy Schrock's
Guide for Educators/Elementary Level.
2. DIFFERENCES: I am so visual, I would redesign both forms...
they all seemed crowed and cramped. Working with elementary students,
I would use Schrock's guide.
3. NATURAL PROCESS: As with learning anything, repeat, repeat,
repeat and hopefully, it will become second nature.
