    This website gives a great overview of the thin, plan, do model for guided inquiry

    http://nets-implementation.iste.wikispaces.net/Research+and+Information+Fluency

    ISTE's website gives a handful of teacher scenarios and strategies that real teachers have used in their classrooms

    http://21c.qataracademy.wikispaces.net/Constructs+for+Learning#toc5

    This websites gives a great list of real-world connection for using inquiry based processes in their life, as well as a list of skills and processes helpful in research and information fluency

    Is there a way to add these as a hyperlink, so others can access them more easily???

    Are we meeting at school or somewhere else next week?

  3. Hi Michelle,
    I don't think we did decide on a place other than Nettleton to meet for next week. Not sure how to hyperlink sites on the blog, either. Good Jay question. :0) Thanks to you and Ruth for all the cool websites. I have been researching via the internet for forms and policies regarding positive behavior support plans for teachers/classrooms. Had to access several sites to compile info. and start to create a form we can use consistently for behavior and expulsion prevention. I guess that ties in pretty well with ISTE 3/Research this week. I still have to search for an article to report on.

  4. This week I decided to see if blogs were something I would ever keep up with, or on. After my informal sampling I decided that it would take a lot of research before I found something I thought worth my time to view regularly. Are these written by people with no friends with whom to interact personally? I wanted to focus on science blogs and here are a few I read through:
    http://scienceblogs.com/ - Main site with links to a bunch of blogs. Below are a few I sampled, based purely on the titles.
    http://scienceblogs.com/confessions/?utm_source=bloglist&utm_medium=dropdown –Confessions of a science librarian. Very eclectic and weird postings on science, and not.
    http://scienceblogs.com/drugmonkey/2010/03/ - DrugMonkey. an NIH-funded biomedical research scientist and an NIH-funded med school faculty member are among writers. Our money well spent?
    http://blogs.discovermagazine.com/notrocketscience/ - Not exactly rocket science. Science based and eclectic, and apparently won an award for science blog of the year.
    http://scienceblogs.com/sciencepunk/?utm_source=bloglist&utm_medium=dropdown - Sciencepunk . As with others, eclectic but some fun stuff. Look up Gömböc and see if you’d write about it!
    http://scienceblogs.com/principles/?utm_source=bloglist&utm_medium=dropdown – Uncertain Principles. Physics, politics and pop culture. A few references to a book titled How to teach physics to your dog. I may have to check it out.
