Online Research Skills Workshop

Covering finding and evaluating resources, avoiding plagiarism and how to reference, our research skills workshops will help sixth form students develop the skills they need for A-level success.

About the workshop

This workshop will be delivered to whole groups in the classroom via Teams or Zoom. A member of school staff will need to be present throughout and they will need a projector screen or interactive whiteboard so the whole class can follow the session online. A member of the Library Education Outreach Team will arrange a test session prior to the actual workshop to check that sound and video links work. 

Please note: Students do not need access to their own IT equipment to take part in these workshops.

Suitable for: Key Stage 5
Subjects: All (including EPQ)
Duration: Typically takes about 45 minutes (but can be adapted fit in with school lesson times).
Availability: All year

What people are saying about this workshop

Students are still talking about it; I overheard a student telling another teacher about her EPQ on Mussolini, using the Library, and she's a 'proper student'.
