  • Review the Learning Resources on searching for and reading research articles.
  • Complete the APA Style interactive media.
  • Reflect on topics you are curious or excited to learn about related to your social work interests. Consider what brought you to social work and what you want to know. Review the current issues and trends you have read about and studied in other courses. Select one of the topics you generate as a potential research focus.
  • Conduct a search in the Walden Library databases for peer-reviewed research articles related to your research focus that have been published within the past 5 years. Use the resources for help determining what makes a good search topic and keywords.
  • Download the Search Worksheet in the Learning Resources for additional support in your library searching. Note that you do not need to submit this worksheet. 

BY DAY 7

Submit a document in which you record:

  • Your potential research topic
  • Search terms you used to search for peer-reviewed research articles in the Walden Library
  • APA references for three peer-reviewed research articles from your search and a brief explanation of how each article relates to your topic

Note that your Instructor will provide feedback on your use of APA Style this week so that you may apply that feedback for next week.

For next week’s Assignment, you will continue to search for more articles for a total of six peer-reviewed research articles on your topic.

USEFUL NOTES

Conduct a search in the Walden Library databases for peer-reviewed research articles related to your research focus that have been published within the past 5 years. Use the resources for help determining what makes a good search topic and keywords.

Introduction

Conducting a search in the Walden Library databases for peer-reviewed research articles related to your research focus that have been published within the past 5 years is an important task. Your goal is not only to find relevant articles, but also to make sure they’re relevant by using keywords and topic areas that are appropriate for your audience.

Conduct a search in the Walden Library databases for peer-reviewed research articles related to your research focus that have been published within the past 5 years.

Next, use keywords as “tags” on each page of results so that no matter how many pages there are or what other information is included within them (such as links), they can be given equal importance in order for readers/viewers/listeners etc., who may not know anything about these topics but still want more information on them would be able access those pages quickly without having read through everything else first which could take longer than just reading from beginning till end since all words might not show up when typed into Google search bar window.”

Use the resources for help determining what makes a good search topic and keywords.

Searching for research articles is an important part of your research. You can use the resources below to help determine what makes a good search topic and keywords.

  • Use the most popular searches in your field: This will give you an idea of what kinds of topics are most often searched by other people in your field. For example, if you’re looking at teen suicide rates and want to find information on suicide prevention strategies, it may be helpful to see that many people are searching for articles related to teen suicide prevention strategies as well as articles on how teenagers can prevent themselves from taking their own lives.

  • Look at recent searches: Often times users will ask questions about something they’ve seen recently (e.g., “What happens when we die?”) or have heard mentioned somewhere else (e.,g., “What does it mean when someone says they’re dying?”). These types of questions usually don’t get answered immediately after being asked; instead it’s best practice for researchers not only answering such queries but also linking them back into their own work so others can benefit from their findings as well!

finding good searches for your articles.

When you are conducting a search in the Walden Library databases, it is important to use resources for help determining what makes a good search topic and keywords. The Mad Libs section of the library is an excellent resource for this purpose. You can also find information about how to use Google Scholar by searching for “Google Scholar Help” or “Searching Your Way Through Google Scholar.”

In addition to these resources, there are several other ways you can find good searches for your articles:

  • Use Google Books (https://reference.google.com/intl). This site has over 6 million scanned books from all over the world, including some from Harvard University libraries; so if you’re looking for something specific on one of our collections’ subject areas like science fiction or sports history then this would be a great place to start your search!

Conclusion

We hope that this guide helps you to find good searches for your articles. Remember, the key to success is being specific with your search terms and making sure that they are relevant to your topic. If you find that a search doesn’t have what you need, try narrowing it down further by adjusting some of its components (such as changing “journal articles” into “peer-reviewed research papers).
