Step 2-decide which sources (books, Internet, reference materials) you need in order to gather your information.
Step 3-Where do I look to find these sources-library books,reference books, the Internet?
Step 4 What Can I Use from These Sources? • Take notes to answer the problem you are searching. • You may have notes from several different sources-books, encyclopedias, Internet, etc.
Step 5-Using Information • Now it’s time to use the information for the report. • Remind the students not to copy directly from the sources used. • Be creative.
