#8

This week, I started to learn about Academic Search Premiere. At first I really did not like it. I'm so used to just puttering off to Google for all my needs, that the prospect of switching it up really scared me. I'm not going to lie, when we were going over it in class, I really didn't think that i was going to learn how to do it, it looked way way too complicated. I did, however, decide to give it a try. It took me quite a few tries, but in the end, I did have a little success. It will just take a little getting used to. Its not quite as easy as just popping something into Google, yet what you get out of it are much richer sources. What you find is great, true, information. No one is able to touch this, it's not like Wikipedia. It really is good solid information. I think that it will really prove to be useful to gave this kinda of information for this kind of class/program too, I know that with a little extra effort, we will benefit from it in the end.
