Thing #16

Wow...okay I think that this is an awesome tool. Again, how my college years would have been different if I had something like this. This is savvy, and completely useful. I love the step by step plan that it lays out. I really liked the Assignment Calculator and how it had the quick start information about how to even attempt finding books in the U of MN library. This seems really helpful. I like on the RPC how you can choose your presentation, whether it was an essay or slide show, etc. Time management is such an important skill that many people do not have a good grasp on. This could be really helpful. Even high school students could really benefit from this.
I wonder if someone could make an elementary version. In third grade we are really starting their first "big" research project. They are starting from bare bones, so this tool would be overwhelming, but I wonder if there is something for us primary teachers in the future... food for thought!
