[Our group wasn't sure if communication should be part of this (the guide claims that communication is part of research). So we tentatively will add this sentence to the end:]

... in order to communicate it effectively, using an appropriate medium.]]> 2021-02-12 09:22:58 UTC https://padlet.com/william_tragert/research/wish/1195696595 https://padlet.com/william_tragert/research/wish/1195699558 There's a wide range of sub-skills necessary for all subjects. 
A method of finding information in a reliable ethical manner that will allow students to acquire information from different sources. Use memory techniques to facilitate longterm memory, and access a student's own knowledge and understanding.

We feel that of the ATLs, this one is by far the best understood and implemented. ]]> 2021-02-12 09:32:26 UTC https://padlet.com/william_tragert/research/wish/1195721706 https://padlet.com/william_tragert/research/wish/1195730071 2021-02-12 09:35:30 UTC https://padlet.com/william_tragert/research/wish/1195730071 sarahpierce2 https://padlet.com/william_tragert/research/wish/1195741381 Since the guide definition includes media literacy as well as information literacy, we feel that this may be a misnomer and cause more confusion than help. We noticed that the groups  did not mention any media literacy, though it is part of the guide. We (Group 14) took a long time discussing this issue.

Different members of the group said that research doesn't matter unless its communicated. Some members strongly felt that the research category was misnamed because of the emphasis on communicating the information gained. 

We felt that this was something which needs to be discussed: whether research should include the communication part. This was confusing to us and (we feel) would be misleading to parents and students. ]]> 2021-02-12 09:39:48 UTC https://padlet.com/william_tragert/research/wish/1195741381 https://padlet.com/william_tragert/research/wish/1195748906 2021-02-12 09:42:35 UTC https://padlet.com/william_tragert/research/wish/1195748906 sarahpierce2 https://padlet.com/william_tragert/research/wish/1195750311 In the primary, we had a lot of questions about inferencing skills. In language acquisition and the younger categories of primary (where reading is not possible), skills that relate to inferring from information (pictures, etc.) is essential. 

I can use questioning skills to guide my research. 

I can tell the difference between a google image search result and the website where it came from. 

I can give credit where credit is due. 

I can paraphrase from a source. (This, we feel, needs to be taught through multiple levels of school... reading non-fiction requires more time than we give to it.)

I can synthesize and present my findings effectively. 

I can choose an appropriate media to present my findings. 

I can utilize digital, print, and oral media to both research and present my research.

I can determine the reliabilty of a source. 

I can distinguish between high or low quality sources. ]]> 2021-02-12 09:43:08 UTC https://padlet.com/william_tragert/research/wish/1195750311 https://padlet.com/william_tragert/research/wish/1195761402 2021-02-12 09:47:26 UTC https://padlet.com/william_tragert/research/wish/1195761402 https://padlet.com/william_tragert/research/wish/1195768463  BIS Research Cycle Process (school-wide)

Also: A clear, vertical scope & sequence document that tells us where we are and where need to go in each subject to guide students through the research ATL. This has been a 5-year process Cindy & Cijith have been trying to do.

We all feel like we are all over the place in this and would love to know where these ATLs are located.

This also connects to what we can expect students to know, because this informs our teaching.]]> 2021-02-12 09:55:30 UTC https://padlet.com/william_tragert/research/wish/1195782238 sarahpierce2 https://padlet.com/william_tragert/research/wish/1195798496 We LOVED the vertical articulation and ability to talk cross-schools.
