Assignment+5+-+Selection+Report

For this assignment, I browsed through publisher's catalogs, review sites, and awards lists. While the thought of 'spending' $4000 dollars was appealing I quickly found the process to be frustrating. While there are many resources available to help in the selection of items they are not always very user-friendly. I found it difficult to search within the sites and lists for resources that were both specific to my chosen curriculum and also age-appropriate for my students.

I have attached the Prescribed Learning Outcomes for the B.C. Science 9 Curriculum as I make reference to it when justifying each selection on my list.

Although my library does not currently have eBooks, I have included several in my list as they are topics that are frequently covered in research projects. Having an eBook would allow many students to use the same resource at one time.
