As technology offers new// //tools for more thorough, effective research and learning, teachers are often faced with new tools but old strategies and approaches. This session will focus on how to effectively teach online thinking, research, and writing using free, practical, appropriate tools. Most teachers are products of the "old school" research style, and yet are expected to magically instruct students in a way that is new to them as well. Participants in this session will go walk through a 21st century approach to research where the focus is not solely on finding the information but also on how to verify it, manipulate it, and finally apply it.// || Tricia || //Josh Clark, Head of School, Bodine, Germantown, TN// || former Lausanne Institute teacher || I recorded her session...This is her Power Point...with some images removed for copyright issues...ask me to see my tablet...I have more of her session on my machine. || David || Suzanne Tate, from Australia || Great stuff for all teachers to know about cpyrights || Awesome presentation [|www.helfantpd.wikispaces.com]

 * Research + Technology = HOTS Engagement

.
 * Session Summary: **Technology can be a powerful tool to support contemporary research practices that engage students in HOTS as they filter and manage the multitude of available resources responsibly. Students need a toolkit that allows them to find, evaluate, manage, cite,

synthesize, and present information. This session will examine several research projects and the tools that support those projects. We’ll look at yolink, zotero, digo, noodle tools, easybib, symbaloo, google docs and wikis as tools to support the research. Then we will examine tools that let students create and articulate meaning. As we explore these tools, participants will also examine the vocabulary and scaffolding that moves projects into higher thinking skills as defined by Bloom’s Digital Taxonomy. || Debbie Belinda || Elizabeth Helfant, Instructional Technologist, MICDS ST. Louis, MO || **//Research doe not begin with I want to do a research project—you must come up with a good question//**
 * Cool pyramid for higher level thinking that plugs in actual websites **
 * Good Frameworks: **
 * See PBL wheel in pwprpt **
 * PBBL soc st how is this (current)event rooted in the past? Or reverse. If studing an historical topic, consider how it has impacted/influenced or its connection to events today.**
 * POGIL Process-orientned guided inquiry learning— great to look up esp for science research projects**
 * It does usually assign roles—cool role liason or spy—if group gets stuck can send this person to spy on another group aka observe or ask questions ask for help**
 * Pogil is harder to do in math**
 * Check out their school’s public folder for ideas how to have flow between diff years and subjects **
 * All their work is done in venues so that you can see their projects teacher, librarian curriculum person can all look at their progress to see if they are are answering some essentiakl question**
 * UBD helps to foster alignment—cool chart in powerpoint **
