Navigating the Research Process: The Big6 Model for Elementary Teachers

The Big6 process model provides a structured approach to information problem-solving for elementary teachers. It encompasses six stages: Task Definition, Information Seeking Strategies, Location & Access, Use of Information, Synthesis, and Evaluation. This guide helps educators effectively navigate teaching the research process to students, integrating new elementary research TEKS. With practical examples and resources, educators can empower students by modeling each stage of research, ensuring a comprehensive understanding of how to seek, use, and evaluate information effectively.

  1. Research=Big 6! Helping elementary teachers navigate teaching the research process.

  2. New elementary research TEKS Feeling Like This? Want to feel like this? Big6

  3. 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.

  4. Huh…Show me! Task Definition: What does that look like? • What do we need to do? • Define the problem • Identify the information needed

  5. 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

  6. More more… Location & Access What does that look like? • Where can we find what we need? • Locate sources • Find information within sources

  7. 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

  8. There is more! Synthesis What does this look like? • How can we show what we learned? • Organize Information • Present the result

  9. 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)

  10. The Data Chart 1. Task Definition 5. Synthesis 2. Information Seeking Strategies 3. Location & Access 4. Use of Information

  11. Which one to use Data Chart Research Journal Individual, small group, or whole group Teacher/librarian can model using this Students use the information from the data sheet Time Depends on the topic and how long the instructor wants to take • Individual, small group or whole group • Teacher/Librarian lead • Student progress data • Time • Depends on the topic and how long the instructor wants to take Can you use them both? Yes!

  12. Example: Author Study

  13. Example: Butterflies
