Competency 6: Citation Pearl Growing Search Strategy



In searching the database, Academic Search Complete, using the citation pearl growing search strategy my first search was s1 project based learning. The return was 296 hits. I modified the search based on the results. I read the titles and descriptors of the first results and selected the term s2 inquiry. The modified query resulted in 25 relevant hits. I did not use any limiters. The citation pearl growing strategy produced a quick and uncomplicated search by using the descriptors and titles. The Academic Search Complete database was straightforward in searching. The final search resulted in relevant research for my topic of project based learning and school librarians.
