Blogpost 10/11

One thing I learned from Chapter 2 of The Curious Researcher is how to research a topic correctly online. I learned that you should use the words AND and NOT when researching online. This way, you'll only get information you want. It narrows your search. You can also use parenthesis around words in your search. Google or another search engine, will search those words first to narrow your search even more. I will definitely use this method when looking for articles online. The book also showed a study of how online articles and library articles compare. Google articles have a lot of information in them but they could also be out of date. The library is the best place to look for information.
