Research Process
Are you a Year 12 Diploma student?
If the answer is yes, then over the last few weeks, you’ve started your Extended Essay research process. You have been in the pre-search stage of your research process, where you explore potential topics and start thinking about who might be your advisor. As you determine the focus of your research, it is important that you begin effectively collecting your resources and taking initial notes so you can access them later.
The resource we will be using for saving, annotating and sharing your research is the social bookmarking tool Diigo.

Your subject area teachers and supervisors will be added to these groups, and we will ask them to support your research by adding relevant resources to these Diigo groups. As you ask supervisors to work with you, they may ask to see your Diigo account so you can discuss the resources you’ve found so far.
