  • The Disciplinary Mind
  • The Synthesizing Mind
  • The Creating Mind
  • The Respectful Mind
  • The Ethical Mind

Each group will find 3 articles:

·         1 encyclopedia article from Gale Virtual Ref Library,

·         1 scholarly article from Gale PowerSearch, and

·         1 other article (scholarly, magazine or newspaper)

They will create an annotated bibliography of these for LIBR 100. Very similar to past semesters, except this semester we are asking for 3 articles and this semester we are using Gale PowerSearch because it’s better than Student Resource Center, which we used in the past. We found some pretty good results by typing in “Five Minds for the Future” as a phrase with quotation marks.

Work with your group to complete the following:
  1. Write the summary of your chapter.
  2. Decide on your response to the chapter.
  3. Write the thesis of your presentation.
  4. Decide on how you will support your thesis. Use information from at least one website to support your thesis. You will be expected to write a Works Cited section for your presentation.
  5. Write an outline of your presentation
  6. How will you present your information?
  7. Be creative and plan to engage your audience.
  8. Make sure you refer to the text to support your ideas as you would in an essay.
  9. You may use Powerpoint, but make sure you keep the text on the slides to the minimum (3 points per slide).
  10. Your group will get 15 minutes to present this information.
