You may not have thought about using the library as a set of skills, but those skills can save you time and mental energy as you progress through your program and in your career. Now that you have chosen your research question and begun searching the library databases for next week’s assignment, spend some time sharing your research question and your experiences using the library databases.

What topic and research question did you pursue?

How is your research question relevant to your passions and interests in psychology and to your purpose?

Reflecting on the Library Research Knowledge Assessment, what skill areas were recommended for improvement and what skill areas did you do well on?

What strategies did you use to locate relevant articles?

Did you find Boolean commands (for example, AND, OR) confusing? What tips would you give others for learning these commands?

What insights did you gather about your research question?

What conclusions did you come to about the role of research in your future career vision?

If you had any trouble selecting and refining your topic or creating a research question, use this discussion to receive support from your peers and instructor to work through your challenges.
