I think one of the best resources students can use for research is the Library. The Library not only has books, but some have computers to use the world wide web and search sites such as; biographical dictionary and yahoo.com.

# data[].attributes.body
I think its important for students to understand that failures are a part of all of our lives. I would want students to find someone who immediately impacts them (a teachers, parent, grandparent, etc) and interview them on how failures have gotten them to where they are. This should also help students understand that failure and success are subjective to the individual goals we all have.

# data[].attributes.body
There are so many resources available for students to use in research.
1) for formal research , the libraries of our campuses have a lot of databases and some are specifically rooted in Biographies, so finding famous examples would be easy.
2) I think your classroom itself. The virtual setting offers an opportunity for students to be assigned randomly to a breakout room. Having students discuss their own personal failures and successes could be beneficial with the proper guidance.

Sidney Poitier lived in extreme poverty in the Bahamas and ended up moving to New York as a young teenager with only $3 in his pocket. He found an ad directed to African Americans who wanted to become actors and where he auditioned for an acting part in a movie. When his time arrived and to make matters worse he messed up his lines several times and had a heavy Caribbean accent which led the movie director at the time to tell him to: 'Stop waisting his time" and "Get a job as a dish washer". This only made Poitier stronger and to persevere . Nevertheless, this made Sidney study at the American newscasters to lose his accent and ended going back to the place where he auditioned first and landed a role in "Days of Our Youth". From that moment on Poitier became a success!

When Jack was 15-years-old he also created a new diagnostic test for pancreatic cancer. Jack Andraka’s test is 28 times faster, 26,000 times less expensive and over 100 times better than the current diagnostic tests. After a close family friend died of pancreatic cancer Jack became interested in finding a better diagnostic test. The solution came to him during his high school biology class. The teacher was talking about something else but jack was reading another article.  Jack Andraka used information he found through Google searches and free online science journals to develop a plan and a budget. Jack contacted over 200 people including researchers at Johns Hopkins University and the National Institutes of Health with a proposal to work in their labs after school and on the weekends.  He got 199 rejections before he finally got an acceptance Jack worked after school every day, on weekends and over holidays at Maitra’s lab until he developed his test.

It wasn't long before Jackson also got involved with drugs which eventually led to his arrest, conviction of possession and sentencing of a prison term of 3 to 9 years. However, Jackson ended up being sent to boot camp for 6 months where he earned his GED. After being shot 9 times outside his grandmother's home and being left for dead, Jackson was able to sign to a record label that would quickly drop him afterwards. Eventually, Eminem picked him up and signed him to Shady Records, which eventually led to the take off of his recording career.
