Week 8 Subject Directories/Smarthinking

This week we looked at Google Directory (www.google.com/dirhp) and Yahoo Directory (dir.yahoo.com). Subject directories can be useful if you don't know what you want to research or if you are getting too much information and you want to narrow it down. This week I passes out the Descriptive Project and the Source Evaluation sheets. They can be found here. The rough draft is due November 6th and you will submit them to smarthinking. Smarthinking is an online tutoring service. Your username is your Bryant & Stratton e-mail address and the password is the last four of your SSN.

Next week we will be talking about Databases. Please read 55-64 in Research Strategies for the Digital Age.
