Using Print and Nonprint Sources | Classroom Success for Writing 8-12 ELA Guide

Have students conduct research using both print and non-print sources — that means both books, videos, podcasts, articles, electronic databases, digital collections, music, images, and more. Expand students' conception of what constitutes a source, while at the same time, have them organize their search, document what they find, and become more informed on a variety of topics.
