Thing 13-Subscription Databases
Last week, I started trying to find reliable resources on genocide as it relates to Native Americans.  I also wanted to compare that with the Holocaust.  This search is to find materials for the classroom assignments Jim & Eric are using this spring.  I tried both Proquest & EBSCO, and was disappointed in the lack of easy hits.  I will be experimenting with different search terms.  Most of the articles I found were too academic or only on the WWII Holocaust.   It is a great concept for the students, and should make for interesting research.  This is the tip of the iceberg in terms of research, I hope.  It would be great to be able to create a webquest for this assigment.
