It is the type of work that those working in the disciplines actually undertake to create or build knowledge. Therefore, inquiry involves serious engagement and investigation and the active creation and testing of new knowledge.
the Big6 Model
Eisenberg, M. B., & Berkowitz, R. E. (1987) developed the Big6, a widely implemented approach to teaching information and technology skills used in thousands of K-12 schools, higher education institutions, and corporate and adult training programs.
1. Task Definition
Define your assignment & identify information needed to complete it.
Restate the assignment in your own words. What are you interested in learning?
Gather basic information about your topic by reading articles, web pages etc.
Talking with teachers/parents/librarians is also helpful.
2. Information Seeking Strategies
Make a list of all possible sources & select the best ones.
Choose from nonfiction, news articles, reference books, web pages, databases, ebooks and multimedia encyclopedias.
3. Location and Access
Locate sources & find information within the texts.
Consult the library catalog, library reference section, search engines, and web-based references
Use a graphic organizer to map out your topic and sub topics
4. Use of Information
Engage with your source: read, hear, view & extract the most valuable information
Use skimming and scanning to find information that addresses your topic.
Look for key words, pictures, read headlines and first & last paragraphs of articles to help find the “right” information.
Take notes – cite your source on your note card
Summarize, paraphrase or quote.
Remember to cite each source you use. Use EasyBib
5. Synthesis
Choose the format of your project and organize your research notes according to how you will share the information.
If your format is a paper, begin by writing an outline.
If you are producing a PowerPoint or multi-media presentation, categorize your main bullet points and images. Different formats require different types of organization.
Present the information effectively by practicing and knowing your audience.
6. Evaluation
Judge the product (effectiveness).
Judge the process (efficiency).
Did you meet your objective?
Judge the quality of your work.
Next, judge the quality of your presentation.
You can use criteria such as accuracy, content, creativity and legibility.
