Importance of Teaching Research Skills to Students

I use Google to search various topics from "fact checking" for fun, to research for educational purposes. Just as you do too. We automatically use skills that make researching our topic easier.  But students don't have theses skills that come with experience yet!  We need to expose them to the correct way use search engines. We can help students streamline their search results by using synonyms, and keywords. Watch Solomon's Story to see how students approach research. Common Sense Media has many resources for all grade levels.
