Involving Students in Authentic Research.
Schack, Gina D.
Educational Leadership, v50 n7 p29-31 Apr 1993
Teachers can help students "find" problems by brainstorming potential research ideas connected to interests they already have. Students of all ages can do descriptive, historical, experimental, correlational, and developmental research. Case, field, causal, and comparative research might be more successful with older students. Conducting real research shows youngsters that their work has value in the "outside" world.
