Research Sources for Science

Science Databases

Writing

The Sciences value:

  • Current references and sources; the more current the better.
  • Processes and measurements that can be reproduced. Precise methods of measurement and hard empirical evidence.  Practitioners and theorists want to achieve similar results, so share your methodology clearly.
  • Proof of conclusions. It is important to show how you arrived at your thinking by examining your thinking clearly in your writing.
