Culture of Australia Two dome-shaped rocks, Uluru and Kata Tjuta, dominate the sandy plains of Uluru National Park in Northwestern Territory, Australia, where UNESCO maintains a biosphere reserve. The larger monolith, Uluru (also known as Ayers Rock), rises 863 meters (2,831 feet) above sea level. Traditionally, these formations were owned by the Anangu Aboriginal people, one of the oldest human societies in the world.

The Big6™ Skills

The Big6 is a process model of how people of all ages solve an information problem.

1. Task Definition

1.1 Define the information problem

1.2 Identify information needed (to solve the information problem)

What is my current task?

What are some topics or questions I need to answer?

What information will I need?

2. Information Seeking Strategies

2.1 Determine all possible sources (brainstorm)

2.2 Select the best sources

What are all the possible sources to check? (books, websites, CPS databases, encyclopedias)

What are the best sources of information for this task?

3. Location and Access

3.1 Locate sources (intellectually and physically)

3.2 Find information within sources

Where can I find these sources?

Where can I find the information in the source?

4. Use of Information

4.1 Engage (e.g., read, hear, view, touch)

4.2 Extract relevant information

What information do I expect to find in this source? (Compare information across sources)

What information from the source is useful? (Read, take notes, cite sources)

5. Synthesis

5.1 Organize from multiple sources

5.2 Present the information

How will I organize my information? (use a graphic organizer: 5 Ws, history frame, bio frame, cause-effect, description, problem-solution, compare-contrast)

How should I present my information? (written or typed report, PowerPoint presentation, glog, multimedia project, display board, photo essay, animated movie, etc.)

6. Evaluation

6.1 Judge the final project (Does it effectively display the information?)

6.2 Judge the process (Did I complete it efficiency, according to the guidelines?)

Did I do everything that was required to the best of my ability?

Did I complete each of the Big6 Stages in an exemplary way?

Is it perfect?

[|Walter Calloway]

was born in Richmond, Virginia, in 1848. Calloway and his mother and brother were purchased by John Calloway, who owned a plantation ten miles south of Montgomery, Alabama. By the time he was ten years old, Walter Calloway was doing a grown man's work. The white overseer used a black hand to administer the whippings; Calloway recalls seeing one thirteen-year-old girl whipped almost to death. Calloway also tells of worshipping in a brush arbor, the outbreak of the Civil War, and federal troops ransacking the plantation at war's end. He is pictured sitting on the front steps of his home in Birmingham, Alabama, where he worked for the city street department for twenty-five years.

[|Joseph Holmes], 81 years old, was born in Henry County, Virginia, near Danville. He was the son of Eliza Rowlets and Joseph Holmes. He left Virginia for Georgia, and eventually made his way to Mobile, Alabama, where he lived at the time of his interview. He recalled that his mistress did not allow her slaves to be mistreated--because she was raising slaves for the market, and she considered it poor business to mistreat them. Holmes told his interviewer that it took ten or twelve years before he fully understood what his mistress meant when she told him he was free.
