One school week left in 2007. . . are you feelin' it? Wrap up your work in chem by completing this blog assignment, then you're off the hook until 2008!
The goal of this assignment is two-fold.
1) I'd like you to research your topic a bit more, using internet searches and the U of D database resources available to us. (If you haven't used the UD databases much, take this opportunity to try them out. You need a password if you're using them; Mrs. Graham has these on handouts in the library.) Save any interesting links in your link list.
2) While researching, be thinking about a more specific approach to the topic you've chosen. It would make sense to divide your topic into 2 or 3 different ideas for exploration, and then note what resources/information you are finding. Are you finding the right information for your original path of interest, or are you finding new ideas within your topic area that you want to explore now?
So, to demonstrate the work that you've done related to this assignment, post some new links back to resources. Then write a paragraph post that outlines the thoughts you've been thinking about how to refine your topic. (What specific ideas are coming up in your area of interest?) Report as to whether you've actually been able to find information about these more specific areas, or whether you're having trouble.
Lastly, visit three other blogs from our group, and read the last posts about monitoring reliability of web resources. Please leave a helpful contribution to the ideas that your classmate has expressed. Leave me the students' names of the blogs you visited in your last post. (That helps me to find your comments more easily.)
Thanks for blogging
