The 2013-2014 School year is coming to a close and the final "I" Witness To History research projects are in. Students did a great job with the revamped Research Unit. As I reflect back I feel I had the most success with the summative assessment assignment (the aged journal with three entries) then in previous years (traditional five paragraph research paper), but I already have plans to tweak the unit a bit next year.
Checkout out the NEW material that has been added to our newest page: STEM Problem Based Unit Plan: "I" Witness to History. We also have additional information on the Titanic Research Project-Student Writing 2012 and 2013 Page. We continue to tweak this project and thereby consider this a work in process, and we still are finding new resources and ideas to try so don't be surprised to see that we are adding information on a continuous basis,. There are some great links and PowerPoint presentations to aid in teaching the research process located on this site and should you use any of these resources your feedback is greatly appreciated. Visit STEM Problem Based Unit Plan: "I" Witness to History, as well as, Titanic Research Project-Student Writing 2012 and 2013, and be sure to let us, here at The Things You Can Read, know if these resources are useful!
