  3. Research Challenge Very conscious of being aware of emotional intelligence when students are completing a research task - how do they feel about the task at each stage - what concerns do they have when working individually and in groups - when is intervention important? Recognising the Research Challenge is always our important consideration.

This can be done with classroom teachers and teacher librarians working together in developing such units. - interdisciplinary skills/personal learning
