Beyond Google…Effective Academic Research

• Want to get better results from your online searching?
• Want to find the most reliable and relevant information online?
• Want to learn how to more easily manage and organise your references?
• Want to gain credits for the Warwick Skills Certificate?
• Or maybe you’d like some relief from exam stresses, while getting a head start for next year?

You can achieve all of these by participating in the Beyond Google… Effective Academic Research module later this term, 1-5 pm on Monday 1^st and 8^th June 2009.

Aimed at meeting the research needs of undergraduates, previous attendees have said:

“The course was very helpful and useful for my academic success. It was useful to learn how to refine my Library searches, and get more familiar with the Library's website.” - undergraduate student (Sociology)

“The module was really useful and enjoyable; very enlightening. It helped me to discover millions of databases and how to use them effectively.” - undergraduate student (History)

For further information about how this module can help you and to book your place to go beyond Google, please visit the Undergraduate Skills Programme website. Module places are limited, so book now to avoid disappointment.
