WHAT IS COVERED IN THIS WORKSHOP?
In this workshop, participants will learn how to focus their research topic from a too broad or too specific subject to one that is more researchable. Gale Virtual Reference and two social issues databases are explored as great places for background reading to start the research process. Other tips include how to get started and how to get unstuck in developing your research topic or thesis.

"Once you've got the topic, it's all downhill from there. ...as long as you've narrowed it down enough."
