My inquiry group Year 11's are up to the point where we need to do research about lots of different materials so they can decide which ones will be best for their designs that they have been busy doing.
For this template, I decided to take the information away from its source on the internet and present it on a document of my own. I could then control how much information is given at a time to read and I could take it away from all of the distractions that are on a website.
The Tamaki College literacy specialist, Marc Milford, has been working with us for a while about information transfer. I have tried some of this work with my Year 9 Food Tech class, with their recipe planning.
Staff PLD - Reading Skills with Marc
Today was the first time trying reading and information transfer with my Year 11 inquiry class.
Here is the template that I made for them.
Here are some of the documents from the students today. I have included students who completed the most work today. We had a double period to do this work this afternoon and there was a wide range of completion, from done and completed really well to hardly started. My next step with them is to ask what they thought of this, how easy they found it and if this links to how incomplete some of them are.
