Information search

Information search is integrated into the course, linked to the project work. The information search is reported as part of the project work in the form of two documents: the search plan and the summary of the information search.

The search plan should contain thoughts on how to search information based on the research issue. Once the question is completed, the search plan will be submitted, which will take place one or two weeks after the introduction. This is sent to Mikael . Mikael provides feedback on the search plan. Groups can book Mikael, eg. for a tutorial (30 min) if they need help with information retrieval, write references, source or copyright.

It is recommended to invite Mikael Rosell to a supervisor meeting in connection with the information search. Mikael can then provide better feedback on the information search.

Summary of the information search means that the students summarize their completed information search for the project work in current text. The summary of the information search is submitted as part of the report allocation. Documents:
