Why Am I So Angry? And What Are You Going to Do About It?Paul Signorelli
This one-hour webinar for WebJunction, co-presented by Maurice Coleman (Technical Trainer, Harford County Public Library) and Paul Signorelli (Writer, Trainer, and Consultant, Paul Signorelli & Associates) focuses on how we can better work within and resolve difficult situations involving people ranging from those who are somewhat angry to those whose behavior requires security or police intervention. Although designed for an audience of colleagues working in libraries, the material is adaptable to anyone involved in customer service.
A little analogy for folks to understand that the research process used with research papers is not as foreign as it seems.

The Bearded Seal My Son May Never Hunt
Global warming is real and is affecting many parts of our lives. For Laureli Ivanoff, the author of the article The Bearded Seal My Son May Never Hunt has majorly affected her and her communities' culture. She describes through facts, and her stories ice that usually always forms in Unalakleet Alaska and across the globe is little is nonexistent. The decrease in ice, many traditions and their way of life have been taken from her and her indigenous community. She highlights the practice of hunting for Bearded Seal and is distraught that it is something her son will never experience. In her article, she uses ethos and pathos's rhetorical skills to engage and provoke the reader to care; the logos tool is less apparent in the article. In using ethos and pathos, the reads' knowledge is evident, and their experiences develop the argument that the world is changing tragically fast, and with that, so are the traditions of indigenous people.
Ivanoff relies heavily on pathos throughout his speech, as without it, she would be unable to connect and engage the reader in a relatable way. She describes her experiences while hunting for Bearded Seal as apart of their culture. As she does this, she intertwines saddening facts about the lack of ice. In the text, she emotionally appeals to the audience, "grateful to share the moments on the ocean with these quiet, confident and beautiful creatures." Describing the animals as beautiful creatures, humanizing them. Doing this helps you see the animals in a positive light and helps convince you that they are worthy of saving. They rely on Breaded Seal and many other marine animals to survive. She describes how their ways of life are slowly becoming lost, "Because the indigenous experience is one of loss. My community, like others around the world, has lost a lot… We lost ways of nourishing ourselves." She puts into perspective how much the indigenous people have already suffered. They take care of their land and have high respect for the animals. As around the world, others do not, and it had affected their survival. She ends the article on a positive and optimistic note, not mad at the world, but in hopes the world will be able to adapt, such as her people will. By using pathos, she humanized the issue and helped the reader to care.
As pathos was the primary rhetorical tool used throughout the article, the ethos was used as well. Ivanoff has a consistent logical viewpoint throughout the text. There is a small undertone of manipulative when she describes the ocean changing so rapidly, she brings in the guilt of her son, "I hurt for him. And for my family and our stomachs and spirits. My son, not yet crawling, may never harvest an ugruk for his family. His experience is already one of loss." She targeted the emotions to get the reader engaged. In the article, she does appear very knowledgeable. She grew up learni.

Source Evaluation on “Salmon: Their Fight for Survival” by Anthony Netboy
In my research paper I am arguing that there is a dire need for extra protection of wild
salmon and steelhead on the west coast; particularly in Washington, Oregon, and northern
California, where once very large wild fish stocks are dwindling near extinction. Hatcheries have
helped slow the decline of these fisheries, but are not a substitute for truly wild fish. In my
research I came across a book entitled “Salmon: Their Fight for Survival” by Anthony Netboy. I
found this book to be entertaining in many aspects, but not very helpful as a research source.
Netboy’s book has several problems with it; the first of which being its broadness. I am
looking for information about fisheries of the pacific coast. This book gives information on
“[s]almon catches in Norway” (Netboy 152) and “[s]almon in Great Britain” (45) as well as
some tidbits about pacific salmon catches, and some information about dams on the Columbia
River, however it was mostly things that were not backed up by another source.
Another problem I saw in this source is some of the way it was worded made it feel
Comment [1]: This is a very interesting Thesis
statement! It takes a clear stance on a debatable issue.
Well done!
Comment [2]: See note below on organization.

biased and opinionated rather than presenting straight hard facts. For example; in one section
they are talking about the decline of the California salmon fisheries. The language the author
uses seems biased in my eyes. I agree with his opinion, but I’m not looking for an opinion, I’m
looking for facts.
The fate of California’s salmon mirrors the state’s use and misuse of many of its
natural resources. In the last half of the century a serene land of infinitely varied
landscapes… was invaded by hordes of people from the ends of America and
abroad seeking riches...In the process rivers and watersheds were turned topsy-
turvy, farmlands were bulldozed and covered with towns, cities, and Cyclopean
highways…Like other forms of aquatic life, many of the salmon became victims
of this unparalleled destruction. (Netboy 235)
The use of several words and phrases, such as “hordes” and “this unparalleled destruction” say to
me that he is using his own opinion and not fact, thereby making the source somewhat biased,
and not very useful.
Also, in some of this work, there are tables, showing salmon catches in different regions.
I noticed that the numbers are not matching up with some of my other research. I have records of
fish counts from the Bonnevelle Dam on the Columbia River. According to the book there were
384,780 ...

2. The Research River
Starting a research task, you are at the
beginning of a journey.
This is a journey that you’ll repeat many
times in your life at school and work.
It’s not a simple journey, and may be
likened to the progress a river makes from
its source to the sea.
Adapted from: Lee FitzGerald, Loreto Kirribilli, November 18th, 2010
3. The research river: Initiate
Research can be
likened to a river’s
progress. At its source,
the river’s flow is weak
and undirected.
In the Initiate stage of
an assignment you
may feel lost and
uncertain as to the
path you might take.
Adapted from: Lee FitzGerald, Loreto Kirribilli, November 18th,
2010
4. The research river: Locate
This is a peaceful and
happy part of the
research river.
You browse some shallows
and get surface
information on a few
topics to help you
choose the one you like.
You use key word searches

5. The research river: Select
As water is added to the river,
it carves a channel for itself and
soon forms a series of rapids.
As you seek information, you
find there’s quite a lot of it!
You may even plunge headfirst
over a waterfall!
THE DIP!
At this stage of the research
process it is completely normal to
fall into the dip – to feel
overloaded, and confused!
It is definitely here where you
should seek help from your
Teacher Librarian

Adapted from: Lee FitzGerald, Loreto Kirribilli, November 18th,

It is only after you’ve researched
widely, navigated the flood of
information that you feel strong
and confident.
The flow of the river has been
controlled.
You are now in charge of the
information
You are sorting it, controlling it,
shaping it to answer your
question.
(Keep bibliographic details)
7. The research river: Present
Finally, as you approach your
destination, you may be faced
with choices
(What exactly is the shape of my
essay? How can I shape all my
information into an argument?
How am I presenting my
information)
Which way will your research
river flow to the sea?
Note: Check you’ve covered all
angles and answered your
research question.

8. The Research river: Assessment
• You’ve conquered the
raging Information
River! You have
reached the calm sea,
peaceful and happy
with yourself.
• Or maybe there’s a
little hole back in that
old dam you might
need to fix next time…
• How was my research
journey?

Editor's Notes
Supported by research - Kuhlthau, from 1985 to present,
Todd, Gordon – See the CISSL website at Rutgers
Research columns in Scan over the last few years – Todd, Gordon, Schefers, Foley
Not an imposed process but describes what people researching do.
Feelings, thoughts, actions required at each stage.
The top row described the steps a student takes in any research enquiry, i.e. what students do in a Guided Inquiry.
Second row: deals with the affective domain: Feelings - The Dip at Exploration
Third row describes the actions students take to research – Interesting in its differentiation of the types of searching appropriate to the stage of the information process – move from RELEVANT TO PERTINENT.
The length of time it takes to Formulate either your own question or your own take on information – may be more in open-ended inquiry, but is ALWAYS COMPLEX.
The Information process essentially follows the same stages of information seeking and use as Information Search Process, with these differences:
The defining stage is very much longer in the Information Search process, reflecting Kuhltau’s belief that it takes a long time for a researcher to arrive at their own “take” on information, whether it’s an open ended enquiry or not.
The Information Search process anticipates students’ feelings – particularly the dip – which is a useful thing for students to know.
The Information Search Process highlights a process of searching going from very broad at the outset (“relevant”) to very particular later in the process (“pertinent”)
Allow for these three elements alongside the very practical steps in the Information Process. That is,
Defining takes time
Allow for the feelings of students in e.g. Overload at defining stage.
Include different types of searching for different stages of the search process.
The research river is an analogy developed by Di Laycock from Barker and me to tell students about the Information Search Process. Kids at Loreto have found it useful, if a little corny!
Levels of searching appropriate to the stage student is at is central to The Research River, and to what we found out in the small scale 2010 action research on Guided Inquiry which I’m presenting today.
Students in our research project this year really took on board the language of the Research River.
