Summary:
This is an online
research project developed for students at St. Philip Neri School. It can be
adapted for years 4 through to 8 and is designed to teach students how to
research and record data using the Internet. They then organise their
information in the form of a written paper. The site above contains links to
sites to begin researching, a project handout to record data and a project
outline to assist students when writing their papers. There are also expanded
instructions for older students. When the project is finished, students can
email the class/school hosting the project with their impressions and comments.
