Welcome to Prof. Stewart's Music Appreciation research guide.  This guide is by no means a comprehensive guide.  It is a stepping stone to start your research on your assignment.

If you have questions about your assignment or do not comprehend something always check with your instructor.  It is better to ask too many questions than to ask none at all.

Help with Research Steps

Good research = Good results

Develop and identify your topic.  Example: Has Eminem impacted the Hip Hop industry?

Before you start your research try to come up with a list of keywords.  To do so, ask yourself:

* What do I know about my topic

* What do I want to know about my topic

Your answers should have single words or simple phrases:

Eminem’s impact on Hip Hop

* Useful keywords to start your search

   Eminem, Marshall Bruce Mathers, Hip Hop, Rap

* Boolean Operators (CONNECTORS)

      Use AND to combine two topics

      Eminem AND Hip Hop

      Use OR to search either or any of the  topics

      Eminem OR Marshall Bruce Mathers
