Google Scholar

I must say that using Google scholar did help me find reliable, “professional”, articles. One problem that I faced, however, was the fact that I kept finding article that I had to pay for. Unfortunately for me, most of the article I wanted to use, I had to pay for.

What I liked most about Google scholar was the fact that I could see how many times that article was cited by other articles. By this feature I am able to distinguish whether the article s credible or not.

In addition, I would say that utilizing the advanced search option assisted me greatly. I feel that when I use the typical Google search I get a broad range of nothing and everything at the same time, if that makes sense. I receive so much information, that I don’t know where to start and it’s very time consuming. On the other hand, when I used the advanced search option, even though my resources were very refined, I was able to pull a lot of information from it.

Scholarly Browsing

This is my third year in college and I have done multiple research papers and have never used Google Scholar for researching topics for any of my multiple papers. Today in class, using Google Scholar was very helpful. I was able to successfully find relevant information for my topic for the research paper, information that I never found when using other search engines like Google, Yahoo or Bing. Using Google Scholar produced so much more important and relevant information relating directly to my topic; making it different but not difficult from using the other search engines I used previously.
