Chapter 2 The Curious Researcher

One thing I learned from chapter 2 of the curious researcher is how to properly develop a research strategy. When I usually begin research for a research paper, I go in blindly and try to get as much information as possible. Ballenger writes that you should develop a strategy that will help you find resources fast and effectively. The point that I found the most useful was controlling language of a search to get the best results. I always have trouble when using the google search bar, because I feel like I'm not getting the kind of information I want. I learned you should use terms like "and", "or", and "not" to maximize your search and results.
