Internet Research Skills
- Niall Ó Dochartaigh - National University of Ireland, Ireland
The third edition has been updated throughout and now includes:
- coverage of cutting edge online services as well as newly developed approaches to using online materials
- a new chapter on organising your research and internet research methods
- additional material on the use of social networks for research.
- illustrations, examples and short exercises to help you put what you learn into practice.
Internet Research Skills is an invaluable guide for undergraduate students carrying out research projects and for postgraduate students working on theses and dissertations.
'Ó Dochartaigh has produced an exceptionally useful resource for finding material that a student, undergraduate or postgraduate, might need to find in the course of their studies. The clarity with which it is written and the obvious enthusiasm of the author makes the book an interesting read. A fine achievement'
-Dr Christopher Wibberley, Faculty of Health, Psychology & Social Care, Manchester Metropolitan University
I found it a really useful introduction to internet research sklls.
This is an excellent text for any researcher or student. It is an essential text in anyone's library.
Well-rounded and robust. Written by prolific users I suspect. Grounded and relevant at many levels -- from beginners to folk like me who trawl the internet whenever time allows.
A good introduction into an important area.
current overview on Internet Research skills
Was not quite what I was expecting. Interesting but probably not useful for our students.
Excellent book - I am recommending it to my doctoral & masters students
A great book for some of the more mature members of the course.
An absolute gem. I have already told my students about this and recommended they buy it. The library is also ordering copies.
