Thing 16

Both the U of M Assignment Calendar and the Research Project Calculator strike me as pure gold. I put in sample assignments and found helpful step-by-step guides. I will definitely show it to my seniors. As a media specialist, it is imperative to show students the basics of a Boolean search. The glossary of terms in the RPC gave me a wonderful link to Kathy Schrock's Venn Diagrams that I plan to use when I present to classes in my high school media center. It would be interesting to interview a U of M librarian and ask whether or not students actually use these tools.
