Research Models
The Big 6 and The Super 3 are two research models used in our school. The Big 6 has six steps to follow to complete the research process, which are task definition, information seeking strategies, location and access, use of information, synthesis, and evaluation. Younger students use The Super 3 that modifies the research process in three steps, which are plan, do, and review.
