How do I find articles for a case study in SWO310?
If you are completing your social work case study assignment, here are some tips and tricks to help you! You'll also find a class handout!
1. Read through your assignment
Read the case study and come up with your research question. Your research question should not be a yes/no question. Generally questions that start with What or How are great.
2. Develop your Keywords
Next, look at your research question and generate keywords.
Write down the keyword and then underneath it write down any related terms that come to mind. For example if you research question has the word aging in it, related words might be senior, elderly, or older
There are three different places you might want to search. I'm listing them in what I think will be the most useful order, but depending on your topic this could be wrong. Remember to limit to peer-reviewed articles in the last 10 years.
