Research=Big 6! Helping elementary teachers navigate teaching the research process.
New elementary research TEKS Feeling Like This? Want to feel like this? Big6
What is Big 6? What are the 6 stages? Task Definition: Information Seeking Strategies: Location & Access: Use of Information: Synthesis: Evaluation: The Big6 is a process model of how people of all ages solve an information problem. (Jansen 2009) This process encompasses six stages.
Huh…Show me! Task Definition: What does that look like? • What do we need to do? • Define the problem • Identify the information needed
Show me more… Information Seeking Strategies What does that look like? • What can we use to find what we need? • Determine all possible sources • Select the best sources
More more… Location & Access What does that look like? • Where can we find what we need? • Locate sources • Find information within sources
Ohhh…I’m getting it Use of information What does that look like? • What information can we use? • Engage (e.g., read, hear, view, touch) • Extract needed information
There is more! Synthesis What does this look like? • How can we show what we learned? • Organize Information • Present the result
Last but not least Evaluation What does it look like? • How will we know if we did well? • Judge the result (effectiveness) • Judge the process (efficiency)
