Author Description

Building on the basic information literacy taught in Research 1, this unit takes students through the process of producing a formal research paper. Exercises and activities focus on refining library skills, selecting a topic and gathering general information, the use of footnotes, endnotes, and parenthetical notes, and outlining and drafting the final manuscript. Research paper modifications such as reports, the position paper, and the abstract are also covered. Grades 11-12. Index. (WCB197)
