Mini-Research
Assignment #1—PART TWO
YOUR JOB TODAY (9/26):
- CHOOSE ONE of the people you researched yesterday
(you must have a print-out of biographical information on this person).
- ACTIVELY READ the printed article/information on
your person. As you read you MUST:
·
Look for really IMPORTANT information, i.e., the sort of
information that gives you the basics of who this person was, when they
lived, why they were important then, and why they important now. HIGHLIGHT
this information and in the margin next to the highlighting (for EACH item)
mark “VI” or something to show it’s “very important.”
·
Look for other really interesting tidbits about this person
that you might want to share with someone who doesn’t know about them.
HIGHLIGHT these (in another color if you want) and mark in the margin “IT”
or something else to show it’s “interesting trivia.”
SOME WORDS
OF CAUTION:
Do not
highlight everything.
Do not
highlight huge chunks of information.
Be
selective because eventually you’ll need to boil all this info down into a
tiny summary. |
