I you are a Google school teach the Google Keep/Google Doc integration tool. Have kids use @KaizenaHQ to record their sourcing justifications. Challenge them back. Keep the conversation away from the writing. Focuses learning objective and gives kids a little space #engsschat
I do the same in my class. I do worry though if learning the new composition tool can take away from the research. Yet at the same time new composition skills critical to research. https://x.com/CHitch94/status/978419879001903105
Some activities: Source Battles, turn those checklist into audience participation cards tally points declare winners, annotate, annotate, anonotate,-one pass specifically for sourcing The assessment data is amazing in terms of growth. #engsschat
@CHitch94 @samwineburg @SHEG_Stanford It mirrors the work I have done with @wiobyrne and others at New Literacies Lab. Here is a draft of my never finished in need of updating lit review: http://bit.ly/1Fq9yXd #engsschat
I stumbled into this paper at my first AERA. Literally picked a random door. Changed the way I scaffold sourcing and argumentation. http://bit.ly/2GuKtFS #engsschat
@dwsteven I think it's more than that. When we were doing our IRT research a decade all search was engine driven. The rise and cultivation of a network fundamentally shifts our space for research and reading. Those with better networks and more knoweldge. #engsschat
@Steph_Sukow @EBSCO The shift has been very recent, but it is also making compliance with profit driven copyright easier. As long as students access the library offline they can get articles from the publisher. My research is also more contemporary so have a recency bias. #engsschat
I love when folks turn the debates and edits behind wikipedia into the lesson rather than the source of condemnation. #engsschat https://x.com/dwsteven/status/978416110000320513
@Steph_Sukow @EBSCO Honesty: I don't. Our libraries are connected to Google Scholar. If I am signed on or in person I search, click button, have article. Other prominent way to search is by accessing each journal. Want them ready for academic research teach students to search networks. #engsschat
a3 We ended up going back to good old thick and thin questions. but it's so much more than that. Kids who "read with mouse in hands" can link to sources in unheard of ways. Still think offline planning however is much better for this stage of research #engsschat
When we did our research on developing Internet Reciprocal Teaching understanding and mapping questions was just foreign to students. Questions not only without more answers...but more questions. #engsschat
Makes me reflect on this idea that maybe what we mean by research (which in #engsschat is usually 100% measured by 1-2 writing outcomes) is itself rooted in deep seated biases that must also be questioned
I have such interesting arguments with international scholars. My friends in Norway don't have a word for argumentation and think our idea of equating research to argument is crazy. #engsschat
I think NDAs of sexual relationship should never be binding under the 9th amendment unless initiated by a victim of a crime. When was the last time an NDA was used to protect powerful women?
