Research Guidelines

1) Search the databases and websites linked below to find out more information about the viability of Maglev trains. Try search terms like, "Maglev trains" or "Magnetic Levitation Train." Try the advanced search option to combine search terms: "Maglev trains" AND "viability."

 

2) If you use a search engine to find additional sources, be critical of the sources you find. 

Use the ABCs of website evaluation to determine if the source is credible:

A = Authority   Who is the author or which organization created the website? 

B = Bias    Is the website biased by its creator's purpose or mission? What can you tell about the purpose of the site based on the domain name (.com, .edu, .gov, .org)?

C = Current Content    Was the content created recently enough for your research needs?

 

3) You should track your citations and take notes in NoodleTools. Use your RPCS email to log in. 

Please email Ms. Fox or visit her in the library if you need help!
