Teachers often assume students know how to do research. However,
most students lack important information literacy skills and often
need guidance in order to be successful researchers. Sometimes the
research projects students are assigned are not well devised or
planned, and teachers often underestimate the amount of time or
effort necessary to complete a project. These difficulties soon
become compounded because students often have poor organizational
and time management skills, which are essential in producing good
research projects. The desire to make the research experience
pleasant and worthwhile for students and the teacher who must
assess their efforts has led authors Chris Carlson and Ellen
Brosnahan to devise a logical system to help students not only gain
valuable information literacy and time management skills needed but
also to help the instructor have a better handle on what students
are doing during the process. Information Literacy takes readers
systematically through the management of a research activity, from
conception to final product. Each chapter includes handouts that
have been used by the authors with actual research assignments,
websites for further information, and a bibliography of additional
books that support the ideas in the chapter. An appendix with
examples of research papers that have been done by the authors'
actual students is also included.
The famous Unites States Naval War College wargames have been seen
as an important part of the US Navy's preparation for war with
Japan. The actual naval commanders took lessons from these wargames
into the conflict in the Pacific 1941-45. This book makes the 1936
edition of the tactical rules readily accessible for the first time
to the public. It includes the detailed rules for movement,
gunnery, damage and other aspects of real naval warfare from the
big gun era. The object of these games was to aid students of
strategy and tactics in the comprehension of these complex
subjects. The book includes: Original guidance from 1922 on how to
play the game. Sample gunnery tables. Torpedo fire cards. Rules for
visibility and smoke. Details about speed and fuel. Sample ship
cards to illustrate how the rules worked. The book is published by
the History of Wargaming Project. It is part of a series to
document key steps in the development of modern wargaming.
