Welcome Students!
This ResearchBlog will guide you on your journey and help you learn to navigate the rich information landscape in your selected area of study. It is designed to help you reflect on the research process and to involve your peers, your principals, experts in the field, your librarian, and the world at large in collaborating in that process. Use it to plan, manage, and organize whatever media you choose for communication.
Use this blog and its categories at the right to help you think about and build your own projects.
- Add images and media.
- Add the categories that make sense for your research.
- Try to select the very best, most relevant, most credible evidence to support your research.

This ResearchBlog was created by Joyce Valenza, a well-known pioneer library information specialist at Springfield Township High School in Erdenheim, PA. Read her article on “5 Good Reasons to Blog the Research Process.” It has been adapted from her original model to fit the needs of middle school students by Staci Nazareth, librarian at Saline Middle School.
