what is research...?

• Make sure you use a search engine that will give you the best results e.g.www.google.com (click here for a list) • Narrow your research topic into keywords or phrases (A specific word or phrase will give you the best results). Make sure you search using two or more words or a phrase. • Use correct spelling and avoid ALL CAPS • To search for exact keywords or phrase put it within quotation marks. For example type: “man in space” • Using words such as: AND, OR, NOT allows you to get better search results but make sure you type these words in between your keywords in ALL CAPS. For example: “man AND space” • To Search: Type your keywords or phrase and click the search button. • The search result is a list of websites found to contain the keyword or phrases, which you searched for. • In the search results, make sure you read the text below the Underline words, because this will tell you some information about the websites and if it is a suitable source. • Click on the underline words to connect to the website when you decide that the site might be useful.
