Identify and list additional keywords that you may use to search further on this topic by reviewing article titles, article abstracts, subject headings, and the articles themselves.
Hint: Refer to Week 2 for a review of databases, including subject headings in databases.
C. Revised Search Statement
Review your instructors comments from Research Log Project Part 1 for ways to improve your search statement. Review the additional keywords you identified in the box above (in Step 2, Part B). Based on this information, enter a revised search statement in the box below, using more effective search terms and techniques.
Hint: The revised search statement must be different in some way than the search statement that you used in Research Log Project Part 1 (Step 3) and recorded above in Step 1, Part B. Review the hints and examples in Research Log Project Part 1. For example, you might add, subtract, or change alternative search terms, or you might alter your use of truncation to discover more focused, relevant results. Refer to Week 1 for a review of Boolean operators, search statements, and advanced searching techniques.
Step 3: Subject Guide Search
Try your search statement in a different library database than the one you searched in Step 2, Part A. Consult a subject guide on the Library website appropriate to your research question to help you identify the relevant databases in which to research your topic.
A. Subject Guide
What is the name of the subject guide you used to locate an appropriate database in which to search?
Example: Guide to Linguistics Resources
Hint: Refer to Week 2 for a review of subject guides.
B. Database Name
What is the name of the database in which you searched?
Example: AnthroSource
Hint: This must be a different database than Academic Search Complete or MasterFILE Premier.
C. Search Statement
Enter the search statement you used to successfully search the database.
Hint: You can use the revised search statement that you recorded above (Step 2, Part C) or a new, further revised search statement. This must be the statement that you used to get the results recorded in Step 5 below.
Step 4: Select a Relevant Article
A. Citation Information
From the search results you retrieved in Step 3, select a full-text, in-depth article that is relevant to your research question. The article should not just be a brief overview of the topic but rather should address the key concepts of your research question and be as in-depth as possible, preferably written by an expert or credentialed author(s) in the field. Record the citation information in the spaces below.
Hint: Do NOT select newspaper or popular magazine articles, encyclopedia entries, or very brief journal articles (including editorials or letters to the editor), that would be useful only for background research. The article must be an in-depth article on your topic.
Article Title
Periodical/Publication Title (e.g., Harvard Business Review).
B. Article Type
Is the source (periodical/publication) of the article scholarly, trade, or popular?
Hint: Refer to table 2.4 in Week 2 for a review of periodical literature types. Consult the database Ulrichsweb Global Serial Directory for assistance if needed.
How can you tell?
Hint: Review the article itself to describe the characteristics of the periodical type in more detail.
C. Database
In which UMUC library database did you find the full text of the selected article?
Step 5: Article Evaluation
A. Evaluate the Article Content
Using the general evaluation criteria described in Week 3, explain in the boxes below how the article you selected meets each of the criteria (authority, reliability, coverage, and currency). Describe each aspect of your selected article in detail.
Hint: Refer to the table 3.2, which describes authority, reliability, coverage, and currency.

Hint: Refer to Week 3 for information on analyzing sources and evaluating content.
