Research It!

The Big6 is a way to help you answer your questions. It can help you do a report, a project, or even help you do your homework. There are 6 steps to follow:

 

1. Task Definition -- What do I need to do? What do I need to know?

 

2. Information Seeking Strategies -- What sources can I use?

 

3. Location and Access -- Where and when can I find these sources?

 

4. Use of Information -- Read, listen, view, take notes.

 

5. Synthesis -- Write, revise, produce a finished product.

 

6. Evaluation -- How did I do?
