CPWC Day 4 - Using the Library

"Google can bring you back 100,000 answers.  A librarian can bring back the right one." 

-Author Neil Gaiman

Objective:  Identify and utilize library resource relevant to CP World Cultures.

Task:  Good morning!  When you arrive to class, please open up Schoology and download "Foundations Investigation - Spring '15" into Notability. After attendance is taken, we'll head down to the library to work on the Foundations Investigation.

Some helpful hints:

• The first page is just people - probably best to use Google b/c some of these people have taken office relatively recently.
• For bottom of page 2, you will need to use print copies of The Economist, The Week, The Christian Science Monitor, and/or Time.   Students can use NoodleTools if they need help formatting but they must WRITE or TYPE the citations on the document.  I haven't gone over the elements of culture yet but they should be able to get at least some of them done in class.  
• For page 3,  students will need to use the ProQuest Historical Newspapers database for #25.  
• For page 4, go to  “Watching America” for question 26 and use the news sources below for question 27 (also linked in Schoology).
• Al-Jazeera America
• BBC World Service
• Christian Science Monitor
• The Economist
• The Guardian
• New York Times
• NPR
• The Wall Street Journal
• The Washington Post
• The World
