A1: Introduction of COCOAP pneumonic for evaluating websites; would love to dive deeper in media literacy #worldgeochat

ecasey77 - Moderator Jan 10 @ 9:08 PM EST

A1: Demonstrating how you search. Starting with school databases such as EBSCO is key. #worldgeochat

c_johnson007 Jan 10 @ 9:08 PM EST

A1: A lot of modeling good and bad search behavior. I like them to see how a better search is more effective #worldgeochat

A2 For me the most important writing lessons have been about adding REASONING to evidence. Facts are useless without "so what" #worldgeochat

JohnHRaby Jan 10 @ 9:19 PM EST

A2: I use an AREAS model. Argument, Reason, Evidence, Analysis, Summation. Ss really struggle with what good evidence is. #worldgeochat

A5 Ideally, I'd love to share Ss work w/ professional from that subj area or region! Why not share work with embassies? #worldgeochat

amcrowe5 Jan 10 @ 9:48 PM EST

A5 starting up a class twitter again, did before at previous school, have had presentations given to APs before too #worldgeochat

ecasey77 - Moderator Jan 10 @ 9:48 PM EST

We have a class Twitter page too, yet I use it more to keep parents posted on what we are doing in class @mrcaseyljhs #worldgeochat

A5: Definitely @Blogger and @YouTube. We use @Skype a lot too! I tried a Twitter account but parents aren't biting #worldgeochat

1 more question left. Will come up in a minute #worldgeochat

amcrowe5 Jan 10 @ 9:49 PM EST

Will do one early in next semester where Ss will have to put out campaign around school, be on announcements, get into comm #worldgeochat

Question 6: What websites, organizations, tools, and people are the best resources for teaching research? #worldgeochat

SamMandeville Jan 10 @ 9:50 PM EST

A5: We just finished a project where they had to create products that targeted 4 communities, including school and home #worldgeochat

Our district was so lucky to have @mmanderino come in and work w/ SS teachers on writing. His book is a great resource #worldgeochat

cheffernan75 - Moderator Jan 10 @ 9:52 PM EST

Our district subscribes to a lot of great databases - need to get Ss using those instead of always Goolging it. #worldgeochat

SamMandeville Jan 10 @ 9:52 PM EST
