<div dir="ltr">I've done a few different things that have seemed to work:<div><ol><li>I talked about filter bubbles and how Google filters and tracks what they see and do. We have databases so that we can eliminate the filter bubbles and get good information without needing to examine the sources for everything. The kids freak out when they see what Google knows and they are wanting to use the databases so they aren't tracked as much. </li><li>I will also demonstrate (5-10 min) how three databases work for whatever they are doing. I create a Google Slides presentation that has specific things I want them to learn for each database (finding citations, advanced search, other docs, videos, etc.). I divide the class into small groups (2-3), and each group has a database and they put screenshots into the Google Slides showing their completion of that search item. I let the groups choose what they want to search, and say they are not allowed to search for their research, but something fun. The teacher keeps that on their Google Classroom or LMS at the top for them to reference as they are using the databases. </li></ol><div>I hope this helps!</div></div><div><br></div><div>Ben</div></div><br><div class="gmail_quote"><div dir="ltr" class="gmail_attr">On Wed, Jan 29, 2020 at 10:26 AM Kari S via AISLE <<a href="mailto:aisle@list.railslibraries.info">aisle@list.railslibraries.info</a>> wrote:<br></div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0px 0px 0px 0.8ex;border-left:1px solid rgb(204,204,204);padding-left:1ex"><div dir="ltr">I am in need to of some engaging ideas for Database & Citation lessons. Right now I just don't think what I'm doing is very engaging. I struggle because I'm just not sure how to show students how the databases work, where to click, how to find citations, etc. without the basic lecture style but I know it's dry and boring. I'd love to find a way to teach the content without being incredibly boring 😂<div><br></div><div>Any suggestions?
