Over the past few weeks in this class I have learned helpful tips and tricks when it comes to research or even regular everyday searches. In reading Badke, I have learned new techniques to better my researching needs in library databases and not just depend on Google. I was introduced to and used the EBSCO databases in previous classes, but I have learned more ways to use it to my advantage. I, however, was not aware of Google Scholar. It is useful sometimes and I say sometimes because it can be as much of a headache as the regular Google search engine is.
