Research

Research is the systematic and formal investigation and study
of materials and sources in order
to establish facts and reach new conclusions.

Secondary Research Framework

"When we start student research in the library, our students become comfortable with asking librarians for help, using books and periodicals, and accessing online library resources like databases. Even if the project does not entail using a physical book, it sets the tone: the library is always connected with research endeavors."

-Angie Miller, "All Research Should Begin in the Library, KnowledgeQuest, 13 February 2018.

Why is it important to connect
the school librarian and the library with research endeavors?

How do school librarians support students during  research endeavors?

What are the librarian and the classroom teacher
during to foster student success?

Comparison of Research Frameworks

In the attempt to prepare students to be college and career ready,
state education departments and school districts
are encouraged to develop or adopt
academic research frameworks and processes
that can be taught to students
beginning in their earliest years and throughout their educational experience.
