Finding Information!!

With this next exercise we had to start looking for creditable sources. The first step was to just Google some keywords and look at some websites to see if they would be anything we were looking for. Then we went on to noodletools.com and look at specialized search engines to narrow our search and topic down. Finally, with our saved results, we made a bibliography.

I really enjoyed doing this exercise because I never search for sources first, I search as I go. Now I will be able to read and become more comprehensive of my topic before I write. Also I am able to narrow my topic and completely focus, when I write my paper. Many times I start with too large of a topic and slim down as I write, which does not provide a very strong paper. I will definitely use this strategy in the future with writing research papers.
