Summer Library Program: Pedagogical Support for Research

The past couple of days was spent on research skills instruction and one-on-one consultations with our high school juniors. In a few days, we will end the Academic Year 2020-2021 but before things close, I sent out to our juniors (who are incoming seniors) a letter informing them of the library's summer program.

Dear Juniors,

As you journey further on in the EE and SP,  we, in the BA Library, will continue to support you. As your reading and research companions, we are opening library services during the summer. 

We can assist you on the following:

1. Borrowing of print books and resources through book drop and pickup delivery. Send Flynn an email for your book requests. His email address is library@beaconacademy.ph.

2. 30-40 min Zoom meeting with Ms. Zarah. We can talk and learn about the skills involved in research using your EE/SP topics as context and content. The skills to cover are:

-  selecting and evaluating sources and references - how to funnel topics, sub-topics vis-a-vis a variety of sources of information

-  discussions on citations and referencing following the MLA, APA standards

-  connecting the relevance of an annotated bibliography and gathered data when writing your first draft of the EE/SP

- others: using writing models and formatting, time management and self care

Schedule: Once a week, every Wednesday 9-11.30 AM beginning on June 16, 2021 - July 7, 2021

June 16 - Selecting and Evaluating Sources
June 23 - Citations and Referencing
June 30 - The Annotated Bibliography and Writing the First Draft
July 7 - Writing Models, time management and self care

This is the Zoom Link *****

Attached is a PPT presentation of the library's database and online subscriptions and a Quick Users Guide to the BA Library. 


Have a safe and enjoyable summer, Aristea!
 
Ms. Zarah :-)
