Thing 21: Student Tools

It seems like it would relatively easy to encourage students to use either the RPC or the Assignment Calculator. Research projects can be overwhelming. A step-by-step guide can be motivational, especially if you can point that there is a light at the end of tunnel.

I am not sure how many students (high school or college) would follow the steps precisely and timely; but I definitely think it would be something students would and could use as a touchstone or base for their research operations.

The level of customization in the Assignment Calculator (i.e. the links other web pages and resources) makes the Tool even more valuable, and it reiterates the idea that this guide (in this online form) can actually be a launching point.
