High School to College Research Writing Group

Holland Christian High School (Holland, MI)  (map)
10:00 AM - 3:00 PM 

Registration Fee:  $10.00

Interested in helping high school students improve their research skills?  A group of CSI media specialists, teachers, and Calvin College librarians met in November 2008 on the topic "Building a Bridge to College Research."  This meeting continues the work begun a year ago.

Our focus in 2009 will be sharing resources and successful collaborations.  In the morning, we will have a show-and-tell of our favorite research resources to use with students, and after lunch, Dr. Susan Felch, Professor of English at Calvin College, will speak and lead a discussion on faculty/librarian collaborations.  Any high school classroom instructors who teach research in their courses as well as library media specialists are especially invited to attend.  (Bonus:  HCHS recently completed renovations to their building, so you will also get the opportunity to see their brand new media center!)
