Element Sway/Information Fluency

Part 2

I. What questions did you need to research in order to create your sway?

Who discovered the element first?

What is this element used for?

Where was this element discovered?

How was this element discovered?

Where did the name come from?

2. What new or familiar digital tools did you try to use as you worked through this project?

A familiar digital tool I used as I worked through this project was inserting the images. I’ve done something that had a similar process in video editing.

3. What was the process you used to investigate the topic and how did you verify and cite the information you found?

The process I used to investigate the topic was making a chart in word and putting down the information sorted by sections (discovery time, atomic weight, etc..). After a section of the paragraph, I put the info into a section and reword it. I read through 3 different sites to make my info more accurate.

4. How did the process of completing this challenge go? What could you have done better?

The process of completing this challenge was pretty easy since we have a good school site to research from (Gale). Something I could have done better is using my time more wisely.
