Hi everyone,
For those of you interested in the responses to my research tools question,
the most helpful responses have been Jacquelyn’s Google hyperdoc and Adrienne’s
(St. Thomas Catholic School in Fairfield CT) suggestion to use the free
scavenger hunt handouts provided by EBSCO, which can be found at
https://help.ebsco.com/, click on training in the menu and it’s listed
under “additional training.”
Other suggestions included:
TRAILS Assessments, which I use but is going away soon/maybe
Advanced Google search tips
Library orientation and using the CRAAP test, which I already do
MLA/citations/Noodletools, but my school’s English department already
covers that in their classes

Hi,
Does anyone have handouts, worksheets or other supplemental tools for
teaching research to high school freshmen you are willing to share? My
English department would like me to expand my one day research crash course
into two days. They have given me a blank check to do whatever I want,
including homework and tests. Here is what I have covered in past year
during a regular 42-minute period:
ResearchitCT.org
Google vs. Google Scholar
Sweet Search
Worldcat.org
Bristol Public Library (or student’s local library)
Boolify (Boolean search tool on KidzSearch.com vs. linear algebra in Google)
Any and all tips are welcome!
Thanks,
Dawn M. Zillich, librarian
St. Paul Catholic High School
Bristol, CT
"The old idea of the librarian as a sort of recluse closeted with his books
and
interested only in them is the very antithesis of the modern librarian, who
must live with people equally with books, and who must also be keenly aware
of all that is going on in the world around him."
~Linda A. Eastman~ (Head Librarian of the Cleveland Public Library, 1918 to
1938)
