Tips on research topic searches break your topic up into keywords to find articles, reports and information use synonyms i. e. event or budget travel or hostels limit your research to recent articles

What are refereed journals? refereed journals have an editorial board to approve publication, a reference list and up to date contact details they are also known as peer reviewed articles

Database search techniques use the connecting words and/or the truncation symbol * enables a word to be searched by its stem, eg. manag* searches for manage, manager, management, etc. the wildcard symbol ? ensures different spellings are searched, eg. Globali? ation searches for globalisation (AUS) or globalization (USA)
