Module 2: Finding Information for your Assignments


Learning Outcomes

Once you have completed this module, you will be able to:

  • Understand the basic structure and organisation of databases

Module 2 includes:

  • Activity 2.1 - "What is a database?"
  • Activity 2.2 - Planning a search strategy
  • Activity 2.3 - Searching Web of Knowledge databases
  • Activity 2.4 - Constructing your search
