Webquery Process

Students! Here is the next part of your Webquery assignment.

The Process..

When we conduct research, it can be difficult to know where to start. The best way to start is to ask yourself some questions..

1. Where should I start?

2. Can the task be broken down into smaller tasks?

3. Where can I find the information to answer "who, what, when, where, and why" of my chosen artist?

4. What can I tell about the quality of these web resources? (Hint: Using Wikipedia probably isn't a good idea..)

5. Are these facts or opinions?

6. How can the info I find be arranged to be useful and adapting the elements and principles of art and design?

7. Will a concept map help? (I highly recommend this!)

8. Is something missing? Do I have enough information to fill my projects needs?

9. What is the best way to use the information I have to complete the task?

10. Did I check the rubric to make sure nothing is missing? (Refer to the "Task" post.)

Students, you do not need to answer these and turn them in. These are just questions for you to ask yourself while you are completing the project. I want you to be SUCCESSFUL! Don't rush this, take your time. Like I said before, write more than once, edit, think about the project. I find it helpful to have peers look at the rough draft and edit, and of course, you can always come to me for feed back!
