Academic Enrichment: Using and Evaluating the Web for Research (12:45-2:30) on 10/20/09

This workshop mainly focused on how as college students at Baruch, the internet sources at Baruch are copious.  When we’re at home, we only think to use google and wikipedia, but this workshop proved that there are many other sources out there, (such as Galenet, and OxfordOnline). These sources allow students to get information from more “scholarly” sources.

This workshop was definitely helpful because it allowed me to expand my horizons as a freshman. The internet is extremely important when doing research which we are going to be doing a lot of in the next 4 years.  I wrote down a list of the websites to use for future reference, so this workshop was really worthwhile. This workshop surprised me because I expected it to be boring. However, I was pleasantly surprised to have gained some useful information.
