 * == An Inquiry Process == ||  || Appreciation (Not included in all articles) || == There seem to be layers to work through. How complicated is this for elementary students? == ||
 * == 5 steps in some versions, 4 in others. == ||  || == ** Journaling and reflecting throughout is the most important part. It is recording and reflecting on the learning. == ||   ||
 * || === Is this too complicated for elementary students? === || It is adaptable per grade level and subject and lines up with TEKS ||  ||
 * == It looks like units of study take an average of 6 weeks. == ||  ||   || Now, can I effectively use this information to convince my principal to allow us the time and flexibility to use this method? ||

FLIP it!
This was one example of how to start. || == Is it student centered? Does it promote student inquiry and higher order thinking? == ||
 * =Know= || =Want to Learn= || =Learn= || =Further Questions= ||
 * == It is a research method == || == What are the components? == || == It involves folding a sheet of paper in to 4 blocks. Worksheet format, Used to plan projects ==
 * ||  || == There are 4 components: Focus, Link to resources Information needed, Product Format It is a framework to develop skills as effective learners & problem solvers. It is goal oriented, Purposeful & productive(Answers the question why) and provides strategic self-evaluation (How will I know what to do & if I've succeeded?) == ||   ||
 * == Research Method with five components == || == How it is different? ==

||  || == Can it cross the curriculum? == || [] Yucht, Alice. "FLIP It! Worksheet Formats." //Library Talk// 12.3 (1999): 17. //Library, Information Science & Technology Abstracts with Full Text//. Web. 2 July 2013.
 * || === It can be applied to all curricular areas .=== ||  ||   ||

|| == The best way to begin implementation ==

|| ===Record what we learned in this===

|| === How does it differ from Inquiry Learning? === === Librarians I spoke to preferred this over the Big 6, because it is simpler for younger students. Is it more user-friendly and/or engaging than the inquiry method? === ||
 * == It is a simplified form or the Big 3 == || == What grade levels does it work best for? == || == There are 3 steps: ==

1. Plan2. Do 3. Review
|| == Does the process have advantages over the others? == || =="Super 3 Research!" //Super 3 Research!// N.p., n.d. Web. 27 June 2013. [] .==
 * ||  || == Geared towards younger students == ||   ||
 * ||  || == One of the big advantages of this method over others is in its simplicity that gives younger students a framework on their level. == ||   ||
 * ||  || == To begin implementation, the framework must be taught first. Student must be guided through the process but allowed to create their own learning .== ||   ||

|| == Are there pre-requisite skills students need? ==

Is it appropriate for all age levels?
||
 * ||  || == Constant questioning. Inquiry process seeks for answers. == || == There seem to be a lot of steps in the "cycle" of the inquiry process. Is this too much for younger students? Can it be simplified?Yes == ||
 * === Studies show increase in academic areas .=== ||  || == It increases student achievement, raises students motivation. ==

Begin simple and guide students through the process.
