We need your expertise!

It's my favorite time of year...
RESEARCH TIME!

We began our tenth grade inquiry projects last week by exploring the issues and topics that inspire us as well as those that break our heart.   Our research is focused not simply on collecting sources and writing that traditional research paper that only the teacher reads.  No!  Instead, our students are looking into the problems and issues that they face in their lives.  Yes, they will write a paper, but they are also putting together a TED-style talk (and yes, some of our students willrecord their talks for TED) in order to share their findings and solutions with an authentic audience.  

But we need your help!  As part of this assignment, students are asked to connect with an expert.  My students are hoping to interview an expert on their research topic either in person, on the phone, or via email.  Take a look at our growing list of topics below.  If you would not mind if one of my students contacted you, please share your contact information on our spreadsheet.  Students are hoping to make connections this week.

We couldn't do it without you!  Thank you for your support!
