Gimme SIX! Your Research Paper in 6 Easy Steps How to do a research project using the Big Six Method

Task definition What is the problem? What do I have to do? What do I need to complete this task? Do I understand the assignment?

Finding Information Information Seeking Strategies Brainstorm all possible sources: Go to Media Center, look in encyclopedia, go online to a reference source, ask a friend to help, ask the Media specialist, and then select the BEST source with the most information.

Location & Access Find sources of information. Where will I go? (to the media center, to the public library, my computer at home) Find the information within the source. Look up the topic in an encyclopedia volume, or use online source

Use of Information What is important in this source of information? Read, take notes, ask questions, and determine if material can be used. Look for main ideas about the topic assigned. Does the encyclopedia, book, web site contain the correct information needed to answer the research problem?

Synthesis How can I put the information together? I must organize the notes, paragraphs, and data from all my sources, and then create one research paper. I will use NOTES from books, encyclopedias, online references, and prepare a research paper for presentation to the class or for the teacher.

Evaluation Did I complete my research paper on the correct topic? Did I make a bibliography (list of references)? Is my project neat and done to the best of my ability? Can I hope for a good grade? What did I learn about my topic? Have I grown in my knowledge from doing this research? Did I inform myself and others accurately?

vocabulary Research: a careful inquiry to gain information about a topic. Source: place such as a book , encyclopedia, or online reference used to find information Bibliography: list of books, encyclopedias, and online sources used in writing a research paper.
