Research

are
blended
into

as
a
whole.
INSTRUCTOR
NOTE:
Paraphrase
the
following
paragraph
from
the
Introduction.
To
be
ready
for
college,
workforce
training,
and
life
in
a
technological
society,
students
need
the
ability
to
gather,
comprehend,
evaluate,
synthesize,
and
report
on
information
and
ideas,
to
conduct
original
research
in
order
to
answer
questions
or
solve
problems,
and
to
analyze
and
create
a
high
volume
and
extensive
range
of
print
and
non‐print
texts
in
media
forms
old
and
new.
The
need
to
conduct
research
and
to
produce
and
consume
media
is
embedded
into
every
aspect
of
today’s
curriculum.
In
like
fashion,
research
and
media
skills
and
understandings
are
embedded
throughout
the
Standards
rather
than
treated
in
a
separate
section.
Let’s
take
a
look
at
this
integration
into
the
standards
as
a
whole.
You’ll
see
from
these
Grade
6
examples,
the
use
of
media
sources
is
integrated
across
the
strands.
Take
a
moment
to
read
the
example
standards.
These
are
only
a
few
examples
from
Grade
6.

It
is
important
to
note
that
this
is
not
an
exhaustive
list;
there
are
numerous
examples
of
integration
of
media
sources
within
each
grade
level
across
the
strands.
