I appreciated how your post–most likely intentionally–walked one through the process of research. You move from using an app to locate keywords then to mind mapping keywords and then moving towards discovering what words to research based on the concepts and ideas formed. Most importantly, you explain why this process is important and I think that is one of the most helpful points of your blog post. Not to mention the great recommendation by your cohort member

I was particularly struck by your comment, “There are no straight-forward instructions for finding desired information, it is a great deal of trial and error.” The entire notion of trail and error is often a difficult one for a students to accept when they have a deadline. I cannot wait to implement these suggestions in my own classroom. You have convinced me to spend more time on this first step in the future. Great job!

That aspect is so important in the research process! Thanks, too, for the great ideas on how tech can be integrated to help facilitate this process. Well done.

Using Wordle was a great idea, I didn’t even think about using it this way. I like your conclusion about the importance of going through the mind mapping process. I can see students using this tool throughout their school years and into college. Thanks for sharing, Becky! Great job!
