During the past few lectures, I have really discovered some new useful techniques on how to find adequate information on the web. I think the most helpful of them all was Google scholar. I hadn’t heard of it until we covered it in class and I kind of wish it hadn’t taken me so long to discover it. I also didn’t know that we could put in a request for a specific article at the school library if I can’t get access to it on my own. I’ve also become more selective when clicking on links or choosing an article to get information from. Things like the domain, author’s credentials and whether it’s something that has been updated or revised are some of the things that I now tend to look at more than I ever did before.
