Don't just research for answers, search for meaning!
Here's How!
Online Research Models for Middle School Students
The ORMs are designed as web pages that present students with a clear research structure, including a research scenario, a learning task, rubrics and scoring tools, directions for use of various media resources, links to useful web sites, production of a product, and reflection. Their availability on the Internet also serves to make curriculum information accessible to parents and the general public.
Online Databases
These online databases are subscriptions licensed
by the Baltimore County Public Schools or the MDK-12 Digital Library for
use by students, staff, and parents in school or from home. Fee-based database
digital content, unlike most content found on the free Internet, represents
authoritative content from reference, periodical and multimedia information
resources. An investigation of a subject or research project should always
include information located in these fee-based databases. The organization
of these databases is exceptional and the powerful search features ensure
success in locating information on almost any subject.
