Reviews should be posted by Monday at 3 pm..

My lit review and methodology: || ||   || This looks good...we may want to edit some out. However, what about focusing on teaching children those signal words for your study? It might turn out really well.
 * FOR MONDAY, READ CHAPTERS 5 AND 6 OF POWER OF QUESTIONS AND PLEASE HAVE POSTED AT LEAST ONE QUESTION YOU HAVE ON DESIGNING YOUR STUDY __BEFORE 2:30 PM__.**

 * Chanda's Review

Please cite the ideas in your introduction. || || ||   || Be careful. You're falling into the trap of telling me what the article says instead of the author. If you want to discuss three studies and what they say about comprehension, fine, but concentrate on the content you need me to know before you do your study rather than talking about article 1, 2, 3. || **Methods Included. ||

 * Britney's Review
 * Nicole's Review

||  || This is a good start on a review, and once it's focused,you're ready to go. It sounds to me like you're interested in how activating prior knowlege can increase comprehension. Try getting a better, more precise definition of schemas and see how they fit into building concepts and relate to prior knowledge. Also, see how they relate to reading comprehension. ||
 * Amber's Review

||  ||   || Amber, this one won't come up with our computers. Can you post it as a .doc, or a .rft file. .wps always gives problems opening. || *Methods included ||  ||   || This is a good start on a review. I'm wondering if you aren't considering a question like, w\"Which questioning strategies are most effective for kindergarten?" I'm seeing lists of suggestions for teachers. Can you set those suggestions off with bullets and be sure they are attributed, please? || || ||   || You're falling into the trap of telling me what three articles said in the order you read them. I'm interested in hearing about the topic of comprehension, so you'll need to rewrite this focusing on subject matter. I get a sense that you may want to test the use of semantic webs. ||

 * Erica's Review
 * Brenda's Review ||  ||   ||   ||
 * Sam's Review [[file:lit review comprehension.doc]] || Taken ||  || This is a start, but you need one more article and to focus on a topic within comprehension a little more. For this paper, you're not going to tell me about each article you read and then summarize it. You're writing about a TOPIC and the studies you read should give you facts about the topic you want to consider. ||
 * Stephanie's Review [[file:Literature Review.doc]]

My Case Study with Literature Review and Methodology: || ||   || Nice job...so I take it you're going to do an inquiry based on teaching children to visualize on paper, then reading the story, and then perhaps going back to their original drawings and then making changes in a different color or a new drawing? ||
