Researching in higher education can seem overwhelming, especially as you now have access to so much more information. There is more information, more ways to get to it, and many more types of resources for you to use for your essays, reports, assignments, etc.
The Research Process requires you to critically think about your research need, to critically evaluate your sources of information, and to understand and use information appropriately. It takes time, and repetition, but with the right approach and knowledge about researching you can quickly begin to enhance your research skills.
