Book Details

ESL Workbook - How to do an effective Investigative Study
2nd Edition

This publication will be updated by December 2010, according to new SACE requirements.
We will fine-tune the current approach which provides insights into all three components of the Investigation: Planning material, presentation and tutorial. These are worth 30% of marks.

Features include:
* A shell or framework for developing a report that meets SACE criteria plus a wide range of learning activities designed to give insights into each step in the process. The ‘write-in' format allows a student to ‘tailor-make' his/her approach to these developmental tasks.
* Provides a scaffolding to help students and teachers through planning, researching, analysing and evaluating information and writing the report.
* Tips on: formulating the hypothesis or guiding question and focusing questions, collecting both primary and secondary information, analysing and evaluating information and how to write the report.
* Activities that can be used as discussion points or as formative tasks.
* Includes:
- Timeline and word count implications
- Tips on interviews, surveys and layout - Samples and examples (models for writing)
* Tutorial. The workbook shows students how to distil the content of a report with a view to leading a group discussion on the investigation. Techniques for effective speaking and facilitating and leading a discussion are included.

In short, a great way for your students to master the Investigation processes whilst saving precious time and energy.
