Databases A large, regularly updated file of digitized information related to a specific subject or field. This is where we find Journal Articles This is where most of your research will take place

Class Exercise Locating Articles

Navigation Exercise Find an article (peer-reviewed/ full text) dealing with video games, violence and alienation. Find an article dealing with fishing treaties involving countries from the pacific rim (newspaper/ full text) focused on international law.

Reading Scholarly Articles Title: Communicates the central topic Abstract: Summarizes the text Section headings: Serves as a title for a specific part of an article Conclusion: Recaps on what was said and expands on its significance Analysis of Cases of Harm Associated With Use of Health Information on the Internet

Main Argument: Exercise After examining the title, abstract, section headings, and conclusion, identifying the main argument or idea of the text will help you read it effectively and efficiently Try stating the main point in your own words (single sentence) in order to understand the text.

Citations We think of citation patterns as the flow of information," says Carl Bergstrom, a biologist at the University of Washington. "That's what a citation is — the trace that an idea flowed from one place to another."

Bibliographies/References Do not solely rely on digital tools –i.e. Ebrary/Ebsco Bibliographies are rich sources of knowledge and information-use them Know how to read a citation
