ACTIVITIES |
Unit
3 presented the activities, which are typically part of a research
process. The unit also introduced a number of research sources and
tools. The activity for this unit offers an opportunity to explore
some of these resources.
| 1) |
Read
the descriptions of the databases, which are available on the
Tarleton libraries' Guide
to Online Databases page. |
| 2) |
Pick
five (5) databases that might be useful when researching human
resource management, business management, or business administration
topics. Remember that picking databases will be influenced by
which aspect of a topic you are investigating. For example,
if you were researching employee morale, databases that include
topics such as psychology and behavioral sciences would probably
be useful, as well as databases specially designed for human
resource management research. |
