How do I research?

Today we are going to start a collaborative project on “The Romans”.

Research techniques

1. Think up and write down a list of questions before you start looking for information.
2. Write down what you know first.
3. Write information in your own words – don’t just copy and paste.
4. Say where you r information came from – have a slide at the end called “Sources”

Success steps

1. Log on to Googla Apps
2. Go to Drive
3. In a group of 2 or 3
   1. Create a new Google presentation/Google slides
   2. Share with the Group and with me please (so I can comment)
   3. Add a title – a question
   4. Add your names
   5. Add more slides with question titles
   6. Write what you know
