Notes from today, and reading/homework for Wednesday, March 21

Concept Map for plagiarism

Today we discussed more research strategies and used bubbl.us to map concepts and identify questions and concepts related to your research questions. On Wednesday, we’ll discuss (and do) advanced internet searching, using some of the tools from last week: Boolean operators, nesting, truncation, and phrase searching. Please read Badke, chapter 6 (all) and Ch. 7 pp. 122-124 (in 3rd ed) or 155-157 (in 4th ed) and watch the Common Craft web search strategies video.

Your research topic proposal is due Wednesday at the beginning of class, either as a document attached to an email to me or on paper in class.

Slides from today are available here.
