Today we began to claim the information about rocks by filtering the information asking these questions : What claims are being made in this information? Are these claims true and important? Why?
The children love using this frame. We used books, posters and the internet.
What is surfing slurping & summarising?
It is one part of the 5 CLAIM frames from Gwen Garwith's 3 Doors to Info Literacy.
I completed this online professional development a few years ago and it has become part of life in Room10. I recommend that you check out this research-based, trademarked learning model and programme. Follow this linkto find o
ut about this programme. Thankyou Gwen for this great programme and making this available via the website.Information literacy is the ability to find and use information with critical discrimination in order to build knowledge (Gawith, 1994).
Surf
- Keep your GAP MAP and SEARCH TERMS in front of you.
- SURF or SCAN quickly through the resource.
- Make a mental note of what looks relevant - no underlining, highlighting etc..
- Now slow down and SELECT only those sections that look relevant.
- Reject what doesn't relate to your MAP and gaps.
- Interview the information - look at your MAP and gaps and ask yourself whether any of the information is relevant. (This is where it helps to highlight or underline.)
- Apply the SIEVE and then RECORD summary notes. You'll find it useful to head up sheets of paper with an INFORMATION GAP on the top of each sheet. Write your notes in your own words. If you want to copy, include in "speech marks". Make sure you record details of the info resource accurately.
