Assessment

Section 1 exercise: Have a complex story? Do an article search on the topic in question and find scholars to speak with you about the topic. How would you find someone to speak to you about the correlation between brain cancer and cell phone usage?

Section 2 exercise: Use your keywords wisely and precisely. If you are looking for an immigrant expert, where would you search based on what we just discussed? (hint: attorneys aren’t the only experts on the topic)

Section 3 exercise: Don’t be afraid to use social media. Tools like Twiangulate are very useful. How would you search on Twiangulate for a poet in Queens, NY?
