•   Group 4: Dr. James Dobson, Dare to Discipline
•   Group 5: Baby Einstein
•   Group 6: The Case of Trayvon Martin
Keeping a Research Log
• Web searches:
  – Bookmark pages
  – Keep lists of leads
  – PDF or print key articles, in case they disappear
• Library Databases:
  – Write down search terms you’ve exhausted
  – Copy and paste names and call numbers of books
    you might want
Initial Research Phase: The Wider Web
• Find out basic facts about your starting point: Who?
  What? When? Where?
• Is the source that is your starting point part of a bigger
  group of similar sources? Could any of these form a
  good basis for a comparative examination?
• Note sources of information (ex: books listed in
  Wikipedia “citations” section) that are more credible;
  keep track of these, and try to find them later in the
  library
• Use “snowball method”: as you find out more, use your
  new knowledge to fuel your search
Research Phase 2: Finding Context in
           Verified Places
• Secondary sources give you verified history,
  tell you what other people think about your
  primaries
• Look for secondaries that are directly about
  your primaries, but also ones that might give
  you historical context or a theory to work with
• Use UTNetCat subject headings to “snowball”
• Databases: ProQuest, LexisNexis, JStor, Project
