CC Different Databases Having Different Functions Discussion

Instructions: Before doing this Discussion, make sure you have read the Research Essay in Week 4, “Advice For Students—10 Steps to Better Research,”? and the Researching Databases Video. With all of this in mind, answer the following questions:

1.) When it comes to research, it might not be everybody’s favorite activity or type of essay to write, but what do you like or find rewarding about the research process? On the other hand, what do you dislike or despise, even, about researching?

2.) In “Advice to Students—10 Steps to Better Research,” the author provides ten pieces of advice to help students write better research essays. Which “step(s)” do you think will be the most helpful for the upcoming essay, and why?

3.) After watching the video, what did you learn about databases/researching?

4.) Since you are writing about a local issue, what are some potential topics that you are concerned about (this is a good way to brainstorm ideas for this essay)?
