  4. Group Research • Please get into group formation. • Each group should have the following out: • World Issues Packet • Handout: Definition of an Essential Question • Handout: Group Essential Questions

  5. Every group should have 4-5 people and NO MORE! • Each group should assign out who will be responsible for a portion of the research. Divide yourselves into the following areas: • Current Social Structure • Current Political Structure • Current Religious Demographics • Current Social Problems ( This can become 2 people if more than 4) • Group Essential Handout: Put your names in the appropriate places on the Handout

  6. What is an Essential Question? • Each person in the group will develop a question that they will use to guide their research. • Read Essential Question Handout: This handout explains what an essential handout is. Please read as a class. • Now. Work as a group to come up with essential questions and write them into the Handout

  7. Write your Essential Question on the top line of your Request for Information Worksheet. • Brainstorm key search terms based on your question and the knowledge you’ve gained from your research. Write those terms in the box on page 6 of the WIP. • These terms can be used to research in books, periodicals, and search engines.

  8. Creating Search Terms • Using your key search terms, create 5 questions that will help you answer your larger essential question. • Write your questions in the spaces provided on your Request for Information worksheet.

  9. Get out Computers! • Research the answers to these questions. • Take notes in the boxes below each question. Next to each note you take place a parenthetical citation, or write the web address so you can come back to this later. • Please go to the Melba Project Center on the Wiki to see more information!
