Searching for References
A modeled example
Dr. Q is searching for URL’s to link to his article Emotional Learning
Ok, the first reference is Emotional Intelligence
That seems like a good enough phrase to start with…let’s see
what we get…
Well, that first one is an
ad, the second one
isn’t the focus I want, let’s look at the third…
…this isn’t what I had in mind, it’s too
focused on what they’re
selling.
Let’s look at the fourth, someone’s
book, hmm, that name
sounds familiar…
This looks like the right
stuff (and the right guy, let’s
scroll down and read
some more…
Yep, reckon this is the right guy, and this sounds like the right stuff,
so I’ll cite him, but it’s not the reference I want, let me try another
approach.
Let’s see what we can find in terms of a definition to point to; maybe it’ll point to Wikipedia or
something (or I can always try there directly)…
That first one sounds
definitive…
Nope, not what I’m
looking for. Back to the
drawing board.
OK, there’s the Wikipedia
definition…
Yep, this looks good.
Now, the second reference is Experience
Economy…
And so on…
