STEP 2: COMPILE RESEARCH
To begin compiling your research you must do the following:
- Search your topic on either/both of the Databases
- When you find an article you like, you must COPY & PASTE the ENTIRE article to a Word Document
- You must also COPY & PASTE the MLA CITATION found either at the BOTTOM of the GaleNet search, or click the "Cite" button to the right of the EBSCO search
YOU WILL NEED A MINIMUM OF 5-10 SOURCES FOR YOUR TOPIC, THE MORE THE BETTER
STEP 3: NARROW DOWN RESEARCH
Begin going through your sources, highlighting important information throughout. Important information includes anything you may use on your paper, including the Title, Author & Source Citation.
Once you've gone through your information and highlighted, the extra information that you DID NOT highlight, you need to copy & paste it to a separate document, so that all that is left is the stuff you highlighted.
You should have no more that 5 pages of highlighted information.
