Announcements

1. Wednesday Schedule- You are required to be at either the Durango Public Library OR the Smiley Cafe by 9:30. When you get there, check in with the teacher there for attendance. You will stay there until 11:55. Check out with the teacher before you leave.  Need a ride to/from these places? Check in with Lori TODAY.

Phone/Classroom Reset
Starting today, we are going to get much stricter about phones.  It’s gotten really loose in the last few weeks, and in order to engage in the deep thinking and synthesis this requires, we need phones away.  You will still be allowed to use them to set up music for work time, but if we see phones out/on/desks/in hands after the initial few minutes of setting up playlists, they will live on Lori’s/Jessica’s desk for the rest of the period. 

In addition, to work in the hallway you need to prove that you are teaching up with the daily research goals.

Starter 23

1. What does it mean to deeply read something?
2. When you are researching to answer a question, what is helpful to keep in your research notes?  What kinds of information do you need to include as you are putting together a complicated puzzle?

Deep Reading Assignment
Review the Deep Reading Assignment. Walk students through each part, show them examples in back of the room.

1. What does it mean to deeply read something?
2. Annotate assignment with questions and concerns

Research Strategies

1. Create a folder in your Google drive, label it Senior Thesis Research.  Put all articles and texts here!
2. Library Database
   1. Go to Durango Public Library
   2. Digital Resources → Online Databases
   3. Click on Academic Search Premier (top left)
   4. Enter your library card number
   5. Find an article (walk through different search options- peer reviewed, full text, etc.)
   6. Save to Google Drive, save to folder, cite
3. Elicit (Research AI)
   1. Everyone make an account for this right now
   2. Show how to use search engine (research question, part of a research question)
   3. Click through on Semantic Scholar (sometimes has full pdfs, ALSO has related papers!)
   4. Read summaries and abstracts to see if they are applicable.
   5. Save them to your Google Drive folder!
4. Google Scholar
   1. This searches peer reviewed academic papers
   2. Versions with a full pdf you can see in the right column
   3. Click the “cite” button under an article for perfectly cited sources!
5. Can’t find the full text?  TWO OPTIONS…(well, 3, but one is more high effort)
   1. Step 1- Try other sources. If you found it on Elicit, try the library database or Google Scholar
   2. Step 2- Save it and go to Reed Library. If it’s not in either of those places, save the citation information, and save it for a trip to Reed Library at Fort Lewis
   3. Step 3- Academic Black Market. Email Lori the DOI and citation information (title, author, journal, date), and she will use her black market ring of professors to help find it.
6. KEY TIP- Refine your search terms as you find the academic vocabulary you need (Ex: fashion self expression → fashion semiotics)

TODAY’S GOAL: 

1. Find and save at least 3-5 relevant, academic sources
2. Deep Reading Example Analysis (Due Tuesday, End of Class)
3. Start reading one of them (if time)
