Thing #16 - Student 2.0 Tools

Finally something I'm familiar with! I have a link to the Research Project Calculator from my library's home page and I have presented it at a couple of teacher staff development sessions. Teachers are impressed with it - I even had a third grade teacher ask about using it with her class on one of their projects. RPC offers wonderful support materials for teachers to print off and share with their students. I appreciate that it leads both the teacher and the student through the research process, and it emphasizes the importance of making use of the services of the library media specialist (we want to be included, too!). I wonder if I could have used this to help me schedule the completing of these 23 Things?! Unfortunately, like some students, I work best under pressure. :-)
