Inhaltsangabe

New research points to the future of education as online, student-centered, collaborative, and community-based--all largely absent from today's educational landscape. Use this timely guide to show middle, high school, and college students how to undertake research to address challenges in their curriculum and communities. The approach is deliberately designed to make it easy to bring ethical thinking and analytical problem solving to the social studies and STEM curricula, as well as to experiential and inquiry-based learning such as project-based and service learning.

Organized around the steps in the social science research method, each step can be linked to curriculum and national standards and taught individually as stand-alone lessons or sequentially as part of a semester or yearlong research seminar. The text includes sample lesson plans, assignments, research questions, research tools, and research reports, as well as examples of concrete policy implementation and the kinds of evidence that can be used to assess and evaluate student work.

Book Features:

• Combines research and citizenship so students can bring knowledge to bear on the most important challenges facing them.
• Designed for use with diverse students in inclusive classrooms.
• Developed in a university setting and field tested for over a decade in high schools.
• Connects K-12 to college and career in an organic and substantive manner.
• Works with and compliments curriculum that teachers are already using.
