PLUS model for research
P is for purpose :
What do I know?
What do I need to find out?
How do I need to present the information?
L is for location:
How do I use this Pathfinder to find resources?
How do I know if the site or text will be useful?
Where can I find out more?
U is for use:
How do I skim and scan to find information?
How do I select the information that suits my purpose?
How do I take notes and organise my information?
How will I present what I have learnt so that others may understand it?
S is for self-evaluation:
What have I learnt from this?
What could I do better next time?
