Step Five

Gathering, Sorting, and Sifting 2

This research module is based on the Research Cycle designed by Jamie McKenzie. For more information, please visit his web page.

Now that you have stopped to evaluate what you have done so far, you are ready to continue to gather information for:

• unanswered questions
• newly developed questions
• incomplete questions

You must decide upon which resources will best answer these questions. Remember to use the recording sheets to accurately keep track of all the information you find.

Go back to steps two and three to continue gathering your information.

If you have done a sufficient job with your questioning and have revisited steps two and three again, then you may move on the step six.
