Parts of a Research Strategy

Basic Parts of a Research Strategy

There are four basic parts of a research strategy:

1. Choose a topic.

2. Look for background information.

3. Refine and evaluate search results.

4. Use sources appropriately.

Exploring @ the #MCTCLibrary

You could use a search engine like Google or Bing that will return a large list of websites, but not all the information you will find is college paper/project worthy.  

College professors not only evaluate your thoughts and how well you put them on paper, but where you have found supporting documentation.

When you are ready to begin your searching the best place to start is your MCTC library webpage.  

On the library webpage you will find the library search box and also a link to all of the library resources.

Click on the links below for explanations on how to use the search box and the resources page.
