  1. CCSS & TechnologySpring into Researchfor MS/HS

  2. Learning Intentions • Examine the CCSS related to SFRP • Teachers will understand the process of creating a short focused research project using technology tools. (Part 1- Reading the research) • Work with an example of a 6th grade research project.

  3. Examine CCSS and explain SFRP • CCSS at your fingertips! Check out the common core app at the app store. Type in Common Core State Standards by Mastery Connect Education. Free download.

  4. The CCSS Requires Three Shifts in ELA/Literacy • Complexity: Regular practice with complex text and its academic language. • Evidence: Reading, writing and speaking/listeninggrounded in evidencefrom text, both literary and informational. • Knowledge: Building knowledge through content-rich nonfiction across the curriculum. http://www.achievethecore.org/

  5. What is a Research Question?Why is a Research Question Essential to the Research Process? • A research question is a clear, focused, concise, complex, and arguable question around which you center your research. • The specificity of a well-developed research question helps writers avoid the “all-about” paper and work toward supporting a specific, arguable thesis.

  6. Example • Too simple: How are doctors addressing diabetes in the US? • Appropriately Complex: What are the common traits of those suffering from diabetes in America, and how can these commonalities be used to aid the medical community in the prevention of the disease? • Source: http://writingcenter.gmu.edu

  7. A Short Focused Research Project ??

  8. Writing Standard 7 –Short Focused Research Project Grades 11-12 • Conducts Short as well as more sustained research projects --To answer a self-generated question or solve a problem; --Narrow or broaden inquiry when appropriate; --Synthesizemultiple sources; --Demonstrate understanding of subject. Grades 6-8 • Conduct SFRPs to answer a question --Drawing on several sources --Generating additionalrelated focused questions for multiple avenues of exploration Grades 9-10 • Conduct short, as well as more sustained research projects --To answer a self-generated question or solve a problem ; --Narrow or broaden inquiry when appropriate; --Synthesizemultiple sources; --Demonstrate understandingof subject .

  9. Writing Standard 8 –Short Focused Research Project Grades 6-8 *Gather relevant information from multiple print/digital sources using search terms effectively; --Assess credibility and accuracy of each source; --Quote or paraphrase data and conclusions of others while avoiding plagiarism; --Follow standard format for citation. Grades 11-12 *Gather relevant information from --multiple authoritative print/digital sources using advanced searches effectively; --Assess strengths and limitations of each source In terms of task, purpose, audience; --Avoid plagiarism and overreliance on any one source; --Follow standard format for citation. Grades 9-10 *Gather relevant information from --multiple authoritative print/digital sources using advanced searches effectively; --Assess usefulness of each source in answering research question; --Integrate information into text selectively to maintain flow of ideas; --Avoid plagiarism; --Follow standard format for citation.

  10. Writing Standard 9 –Short Focused Research Project Grades 9-10 • Draw evidence from informational texts to support analysis, reflection and research.
