Dr. Stephen Loro
City College Computers
City Campus College was founded in the 1920’s to serve the educational demands of the City community for both vocational and fine arts education. With the advent of computer and internet technology City Campus College wishes to provide adequate internet coverage for their students on campus. Computers are a necessary educational tool needed to complete assigned class assignments and aid in study for tests. To do so the College should determine the number of computers the students own. This information will help determine the coverage needed to provide internet service to all students on campus and enhance the learning experience of each student.
Research Problem
City Campus College may be failing to provide students with adequate internet server services to deal with current student computer demand which may lead to student dissatisfaction and lower grade point averages. Students have complained in the past of inadequate coverage or slow access speed. Part of the tuition paid by the students are supposed to be used to provide services for student educational needs and services.
Purpose of the Study
The purpose of this research is to inform the Dean of City Campus College of student computer ownership so he may make more informed decisions.
Research Question
Is the City Campus College student computer ownership information accurate in claiming that of a random sample of 600 students 10% owned zero; 16% owned one; 55% owned two; 11% owned three and 8% owned more than three computers?
Quantifiable Measures
The measured variable represents the number of computers owned by City Campus College students in May 2012. To qualify as a computer the device must be a laptop or desk top device and so labeled by the manufacturer and be located or brought to the City campus. Handheld electronic devices, such as cell phones, iPhones, and iPads do not qualify. The data represents a quantitative count of discrete, ratio data.

The purpose of a proposal is to highlight standout ideas, and to do so in a manner that can convince an audience to support a project. Proposals delivered in a workplace are often part of a competitive process in which the strongest proposal is offered the business. In these contexts, effective word choice and professional delivery define the effective communication of an idea. Your research proposal will be presented as a sentence outline. As the name suggests, the sentence outline presents complete thoughts in complete sentences as opposed to phrases. In each section of the proposal, choose ideas with.

Having the skills and strategies to read, learn from, and communicate with the Internet will play a central role in our students’ success in an information age. But how can we best measure these new literacies? This session explores some of the challenges associated with developing valid and reliable measures of the complex literacy strategies and dispositions required to search for, comprehend, and respond to information on the Internet. The presenter will first share task examples and student responses from several assessments developed to measure online reading comprehension and communication skills. Then, conversation will turn to a number of important issues to consider when developing online literacy assessments that are not only psychometrically sound, but also useful to both researchers and classroom teachers. Participants will have an opportunity to share their own thoughts about how we might rethink the ways in which we evaluate the skills, strategies, and dispositions associated with reading and learning online.

Planning For And Supporting Productive Online InquiryJulie Coiro
How are online reading comprehension practices integrated into classroom instructional routines? In this session, Julie explains how curriculum-based information challenges and performance-based online reading comprehension measures can be used to capture the skills and practices of more and less skilled online readers. Then, she reviews practical examples of how to support elementary and secondary students as developing online readers using a model of Internet Reciprocal Teaching. She also shares research-based ideas for how to move readers through three phases of online inquiry while fostering higher-level thinking, critical evaluation, productive dialogue, and skillful argumentation practices across all grade levels.
This slide show was used as part of a two day institute that walked teachers through instructional supports for fostering reading skills focused on critically evaluating relevance, accuracy, reliability, and author perspective during the online inquiry process.

2. Goals for the session
Highlight features of a newly developed Online
Inquiry Tool designed to scaffold how students plan,
locate, organize, evaluate, and integrate evidence
for and against relevant claims using multiple
sources and build consensus on appropriate
solutions to issues having more than one point of
view.
Offer examples of how teachers have used the
tool.
Share research findings about the challenges
students face when asked to read and/or write
about information found in multiple and conflicting
online sources.
Share specific strategies for promoting reading
3. Challenge 1: Reading Arguments
Secondary students have difficulty
identifying and analyzing arguments when
they read traditional, linear texts (Larson et al,
2004; Marttunen et al., 2005; Le Bigot & Rouet, 2007; Wiley et
al., 2009).
Exploring controversial issues (or issues
with more than one solution) on the open
Internet compounds these challenges even
further. Learners require skills in organizing,
evaluating, comparing and contrasting
information from multiple sources (Britt & Rouet,
2012) and in moving beyond their own
perspective (Barzalai & Zohar, 2012)
4. Challenge 2: Writing Arguments
Today’s secondary students also have
difficulty writing argumentative essays
Unfamiliar with conventions of written
arguments (Beach, Thein, & Webb, 2012)
Difficulties considering counterarguments in
their writing (Perskey, Dan, & Jin, 2003).
They lack knowledge of what an
argumentative essay requires and have
difficulty developing an argument within the
context of the curriculum (Bacha, 2010; Beach, Thein,
& Webb, 2012; Wingate, 2011).

28. Many researchers believe social media plays a
significant role in teenagers’ lives. It can help people stay
in touch and spread knowledge throughout everyone’s
followers and friends. On the other hand, friends and
followers may know too much because of the lack of
privacy these sites have. Once someone puts his or her
information on a site, it is there forever. In addition, social
media is a great way to make businesses make known
their products. Ads are all over social media
sites…because more people go on social media than
other ways companies try to advertise, like TV and radio.
Also, because social media sites use the Internet, it is
easier for customers to order products straight from the
ads they see. But if the advertisement is faulty, like many
things can be on social media, it can steal your
information, give faulty information or overcharge. I’ve
concluded after researching Site 1 that when social

Is it an isolated task, end-of-unit
assignment, or a test?
Is it required or optional to stop and evaluate
quality of claims?
38. Realizing the challenges: Important role
of..
Students’ and teachers’ prior knowledge
about topic and task
Familiarity with argumentation terms and
writing structures
Connection to curriculum and prior units

39. The Challenge of Evaluating Sources
Most students in our sample did NOT
spontaneously comment on the quality of sources
as part of the research/writing process
Students may not have been motivated to take
time to do this – most weren’t getting a grade for
the task or essay
Students were not sure why/what/how to
evaluate quality of sources or quality of content
Complicated by messages from teachers and
librarians that evaluation is not necessary in
library databases
Help teachers and students examine the quality of
each author’s arguments (data evidence or their
40. Conclusions from our Research
Regardless of content area or level of typical
academic performance, many students
struggle with many aspects of these types of
reading and writing tasks.
Students say the tool helps organize, balance, monitor,
and write – but it’s still VERY HARD
Teachers struggle to articulate key concepts of
argumentation, perspective, and processes for
evaluating & writing arguments
We need more professional development and
more controlled studies to determine which
task/context features and additional scaffolds
will best support which kinds of students.

c. ARGUMENTS: Evidence to support and refute
claims?
What is the author’s purpose?
What techniques are used to attract and hold attention?
What lifestyles, values, and points of view are represented?
What is omitted from the message? (Renee Hobbs, Media Education Lab)
