Academic research- searching for and saving academic sources

It's a good idea to collate a lot of your academic research at the start of your project so you can be prepared to refer to it as you go along. By now, you should have completed the 5 literature reviews and at least one case study. This is academic research.

TASK:

• Check that you have created a myBib project for your EXP.
• Look over all your research so far - have you added it to my Bib?
• Have you done 5 literature reviews? If not, please do so - see here for the guidance
• Have you got enough research for your first case study?

Whilst your research can take many forms, SOME of it must be academic.


We have compiled some potentially useful academic sources on the Academic Writing blog.

You can search for more by using site:.ac.uk or site:.edu

eg

'synaesthesia' site:.ac.uk

Another search engine is google scholar. The LRC can also offer help with accessing academic journals online.

Please ensure that you have created and shared your exp work in progress folder on classroom!!!!
