Example Research Papers

The other day, when I was trying to find the shared drive which has been renamed, I noticed that there are some senior project papers from past years that have been saved as examples. Perhaps we could take a look at these and see what we can find. Also, maybe we could contact some of the other high schools in the area and see if they would be willing to share papers that they have saved. I think that the papers would be more meaningful to our students if the authors were students close to them in age and sharing the similar graduation project experience. As far as the Google scholars goes, I will try to get a wiki up and running this weekend and add this to the numerous sites that we have already discussed.

This weekend, since we have been stuck inside, Dave and I have been talking a lot about how things are going at Currituck. I have also been sharing with him our plans for our GPE students. After I ranted for about fifteen minutes about all of our plans, he looked at me and said "You're going to do all this and only see the students once a month." Although we know that we will see our seniors more than that, I started thinking. Maybe we could set aside some time for them to come in and work on specific tasks. For example, on Wednesdays and Thursdays we could invite them to stay for a brief session about blogs or online bookmarks in the library. I will be in there anyway and could do brief tutorials at their convenience. What do you think? I really want to make sure that all of this technology makes them feel empowered and not overwhelmed.

Research writing assistance is often delivered in a number of ways such as through carrying out the real assistance writing or including mechanisms through which the student will be able to obtain the assistance writing help.
