Research

Whether you realise it or not, research is something we do all the time. Finding out about your favourite musician, what movies are showing at the cinema, or investigating the best phone to buy are all forms of research!

However, the places you look for information in your daily life are not the same as the sources you should consult for your assignments. This guide will explain the difference and give you some tips to help you identify sources that are appropriate for your studies.
