HW: Continue your research & take notes

Your research portfolio is due next week
(Tuesday Oct. 10 for A Blocks; Wednesday Oct. 11 for B Blocks).

Continue your research on the question "What role does collective learning play in the advancement of societies?"
Reminders for your research:
  • Be sure to use the supporting questions you developed to guide your research.
  • Any notes you take should be there to help you answer the research and supporting questions; if it doesn't its not relevant and shouldn't be in your notes.
  • You need to be sure you use a minimum of 4 sources provided to you in the Research Packet (this is linked within your Research Portfolio)
  • You need to find a minimum of 2 additional sources not provided to you (these are sources you find on your own-- scholarly journals, articles, databases, videos and/or websites)
  • The minimum requirement for "meets" in your research portfolio is 6 sources (4 provided; 2 you find on your own).
  • Be sure to record a variety of text evidence (dates, facts, examples, definitions, quoted passages, etc.)
  • Be sure to provide detailed information that are YOUR OWN IDEAS in the QCI column. This is your thoughts and ideas about the evidence you are collecting, or about the sources (their usefulness, credibility) and you record your own insights and understandings or further questions this raises for you about the topic you are researching. You should also begin attempting to answer some of your supporting questions in the QCI column.
  • Be sure to further organize your notes (both columns) with appropriate subheadings or use bold, underline, color, etc. to organize more effectively.
  • See the exemplars (linked in your research portfolio) for examples on type of information to include in in the Text Evidence and QCI columns.
  • You may also use any sources and notes you may have already recorded in previous research (civilizations research, Unit 1 notes, etc.)
  • Your notes do not have to be exclusively about the Silk Road, although at least 4 of your sources SHOULD contain evidence about collective learning along the Silk Road. 
  • Use the research rubric (linked in your portfolio) to also help guide your research. There is a link to this in your research portfolio.
