Steps of research

 6 Research steps

The left frame on this site links to pages which will help explain and teach the six steps of research.  Materials on those pages will help you understand and do the processes necessary to complete a successful history fair project. The lesson materials and suggestions correlate with the Utah State core for Library Media/Information Literacy and the Big6 skills.  The research unit will also utilize all of the critical thinking skills in Bloom's Taxonomy.
