3 E-Resources Include E-Databases & E-Book Collections Search by Keywords Browse by Subject or Title

4 Why use an e-database?

5 Because … E-Database is an organized collection of scholarly information. E-Databases contain update information of journal articles, book reviews, conference papers, and other academic materials. E-Databases support flexible and in-depth search for journal title, article title, author, issue, volume, etc. Use electronic databases to search for local and international literature. Some databases provide the complete full text articles. Other databases provide abstracts of the journal articles.

6 Can we use the Library Catalogue to retrieve journal articles? No! We can only search for journal title in the Library Catalogue, but not on individual article title or author. The search does not go into details of each issue or volume of the journal. Therefore e-database is extremely useful when you want to find articles on particular topics, e.g. Using alternative assessment with Internet.

7 E-Resources More than 40 E-Databases on Education Some of them provide full text articles User guide available online Browse E-Databases on Education

14 Searching tips: Expand your search  Choose “Apply related words” under the Search Option to expand your search  Use Boolean operator “OR” to include more search terms e.g. web-based OR internet OR electronic OR digital  Use truncation (*) to expand your search term in alternative way e.g. adolescen* to search for adolescent, adolescence, etc.

15 Searching tips: Narrow your search  Use “Limiter” from the database search screen to limit your search results in various way  Consider the suggested “Narrow Search Results by Subject” from the search result screen  Use Boolean operator “AND” to limit search results to a narrower scene e.g. peer assessment AND higher education
