"The dreaded research report has been remodeled! Finally, a pathway for helping students hone their research skills and produce cogent essays grounded in evidence. Just what I was looking for as part of my Common Core toolkit."--Douglas Fisher, Professor of language and literacy education at San Diego State University and author of numerous books on teaching literacy "In this volume, Werner-Burke, Knaus, and DeCamp offer a unique and innovative perspective on writing 'thoroughly modern research papers.' From the creative to the practical research project requirements, timeline, and rubric, this book provides everything teachers need to inspire their students to question, think deeply, research, and write. Supported by teachers who cultivate passion, curiosity, and original thinking, the students cannot help but be successful."--Maureen McLaughlin, President, International Reading Association (2013-2014); Professor and Department Chair, Reading Department at East Stroudsburg University of Pennsylvania
