File docx 162KB

Our students are not aware of the different types of source material available on the Web and the varying perspectives they present. A professor and a librarian have formed a partnership to teach students to do research using business databases that have greater depth and breathe than anything available on the Web. In our session, we will describe how our students engage in and apply database research [eight minutes], conduct a search for articles in ABI/INFORM on a current OB topic [twelve minutes], and invite our participants to discuss how our approach could enrich their courses [ten minutes].
