Research

My research process has gone smoothly so far. Besides accidentally deleting some of my work, I have been able to complete my annotated bibliographies on time. I have also used my time wisely while creating notecards and have most of my World History notecard assignment done. I enjoyed learning about women's roles in Islamic culture. I found out that they are involved in their own pilgrimages to Mecca each year.

Finding reliable sources on a database was difficult. Most of the sources on the database I used are definitely reliable, but the idea of being limited to the school databases was frustrating. There were not too many results when I searched for my topic on the Gale World History database. I understand that we are required to use it because the articles published in it are credible, but I also think that limiting us to those databases prevents us from finding information not presented on those databases.
