Welcome

This guide will help you get started with the research process during your first year at UniSA and UniSA College.

You already do research as part of your everyday life without realising it. Every time you collect, organise and analyse information to learn more about a certain topic you are conducting research.

The research process

You search for information everyday! Whether you are trying to find the latest shoes, a street in Google Maps or information about a TV show, information is everywhere so learning to find it effectively will save you time.

Searching for information to support your University assessments is similar, however there are techniques and tips you can use to find the right information when you need it.

The research process is not linear, you will move between the stages as you discover more about your topic.
