Activity 10: Taking Notes (GLEs: 09b, 39a, 39b, 39c, 39d, 43a, 43b, 43c)
CC: Students will organize note cards into headings/subheadings that will provide the basis for an outline (Inspiration software can be used.). Students will create a visual representation (e.g., charts, graphs, photos, timelines, etc.) of data/information gathered.
Students can also use PowerPoint software to create both an outline and visual representation of their work. NOTE: After organizing their note cards in headings/subheadings, students can create an outline using PowerPoint software. Students can enhance their information by inserting appropriate graphics into the accompanying slides, thus creating a visual representation of their information that can be shared with the class.
PowerPoint example of using the Outline view and resulting slides - "Albert Einstein"
Additional Resources; Students will learn how to credit quotations, citations, and endnotes.
