When using the Science Reference Center or the Student Research Center follow these tips:
1) Always look for FULL TEXT articles (An abstract is just a description of the article's content).
2) Pay attention to the number of pages for the article. This is listed on the results list page.
3) You can look for the "cite" option in the tools area of the article results screen. You can copy and paste this into Noodle Tools.
4) If you are having trouble finding your topic, try adjusting your search terms. The database may not use the same vocabulary as you.
5) See Mrs. Doyle if you need help!
Wikipedia is not an accepted source for this assignment. You may use the resources listed at the bottom of the Wikipedia page as a jumping off point for further research. You would then use and cite that original source.
