Today's Goals

Learning Outcomes

Demonstrate their ability to locate, read, evaluate, select and use (integrate) effectively information from appropriate sources with their own ideas
Evaluate the ways in which they have become a more reflective (mindful, self-aware, thoughtful) writer.

Habits of Mind

Persistence is fostered when writers are encouraged to follow through, over time, to complete tasks, processes, or projects;
Metacognition is fostered when writers are encouraged to reflect on the texts that they have produced in a variety of contexts.

Key Terms

Reflection, metacognition, transfer/expansion
Research as Learning / Information Literacy

Reading Discussion

Readings:

Framework for Information Literacy's "Research as Inquiry"
Framework for Information Literacy's "Searching as Strategic Exploration"

Groups:

Each group needs to discuss the importance of their assigned sections.

1. Pick quotes/knowledge practices/dispositions...

2. Provide examples and connections to research you have done for class (Digital Biography, Research Journals, Responses, Portfolio Practices) to discuss with the class.

3. Provide examples of how you could transfer this knowledge to other research situations.

Add group notes to the Google running document!

Group A: FIL Research as Inquiry--bold text & paragraph

Group B: FIL Searching as Strategic Exploration--bold & paragraph

Group C: FIL Research as Inquiry--Knowledge Practices

Group D: FIL Searching as Strategic Exploration--Knowledge Practices

Group E: FIL Research as Inquiry--Dispositions

Think of how this connects to our previous reading discussions...
