Series review: Core Skills
"When the time comes to update
your research collection, consider this series. It is organized around the
steps, vocabulary, and digital tools for the young 21st century
learner. ... Perfect for a science or history fair project, as an
introduction to research or website analysis, the layout makes it extremely
readable for younger students. The author includes instructing students to
respond to evidenced-based arguments that would be helpful for teachers
implementing Common Core State Standards. Highly Recommended."
