Thing 16 - Student 2.0

The Research Project Calculator looks great! I've had a note about this for a long time to add to our pages of useful links for students, and I'm going to make sure it gets added today! We also have pages of links for teachers and for homeschoolers, so I'll add the teachers' info links to both of them.

Links to our pages:
Sites for Homeschoolers - Education

We've wanted to do some presentations to teachers about library resources and how we can help both them and their students. This would be a perfect resource to demonstrate! Our only problem (ha!) is time and staff.

The college level Assignment Calculator also looks great. What wonderful resources these both are for students! I like that this one breaks the project down into more steps. It's a less visually intimidating appearance (fewer links explaining each step), although since there are more steps, the amount of time the student has suggested to work on each step is shorter. 

I'm really impressed with these tools.
