Intro to Databases

We go over yesterday's grammar assignment.

This leads to the library databases. Copy off the board the flowchart for using the databases.

Then we talk about search terms by looking at this. And then we try this.

Now try to come up with a statement that leads to three search terms with synonyms and write it on your handout.

Then we go to the lab.  You are to search three of them:  Gale, Wilson, and Ebsco.  Write the information from a source from each one on the handout.  These may end up being useful in your paper, or they MAY NOT.

Homework:

1.  Fill out the handout for three sources, one each from Gale, Wilson and Ebscohost.  Then look further for sources that would be useful for your paper. We will be working on this tomorrow, as well.

2.  Be on the lookout for TWFTD words in your sources;  you must find five words for this week on your own. You may use any dictionary for the definition that matches the context.
