12.05 - Debate Research

We started today's class by reviewing what summary, paraphrase, and quotation are and what make them effective. Everyone then had 15 minutes to enter an information source related to their debate into their bibliography and to create a three-sentence summary note card.

I then began checking in with people individually on their research process and they had the rest of the period to find and enter six sites into their bibliography and begin working on creating note cards (20 in all) for their debate topic.

Useful Resources:

Homework:
