Summary

I found this entire assignment to be very helpful and completely useful for future projects. Although Wikipedia may not be a good source to research information, it is a wonderful site to help brainstorm ideas and provide a lot of keywords. The Database was also helpful to me, because I prefer using them over Google. I know researching over the web can be quite tricky, because you never know if you are using a credible source, but that is why databases come very handy over a typical search engine. I would also like to add, that by using a search engine you tend to get a variety of sites and articles that have nothing to do with the subject and most of the time can be likely to try and sell you a product. I love research databases for this reason, it's nice to be able to broaden a topic and find the right information you are looking for without scrolling through hundreds of irrelevant websites. I also found researching to be easier when I brainstorm ideas for a topic, because I know searching by one word essentially isn't going to get me anywhere valid. The tutorials helped guide me in the right direction when researching a topic and finding the right information. I also liked the tips it gave me for helping organize information in order to cite my sources efficiently.
