Post VII
Since the beginning of the race we have been asked to
conduct research through the web, and in this post I will tell you what are my
main search tools.
When I arrived at the university I thought that the search
engine that would solve everything was Google, but it is not, the demand made
me find new search engines, more efficient and reliable, with more up-to-date
and accurate information.
Although Google is still a good tool, I no longer use normal
Google, I use the schoolar version, for the initial investigations, and
familiarize myself with what they have asked for. After this, the pages I use
the most are scielo and pubmed, when it comes to research on specific topics of
biology or the dental field. And on the other hand, Journal of Dental Research
and the IADR website, for more focused research in the dental area.
I found these pages by recommendations of teachers and
friends. And they have shown that they have what it takes to cover my doubts.
Clearly, everything that this content on the web is not
true, therefore, despite being good search engines, we must be critical when
selecting evidence and content.
I leave the links so you can know them:
-http://www.scielo.org./php/index.php
-https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/
-http://journals.sagepub.com/home/jdr
-http://www.iadr.org/
"San Google" seemed to have all the truth until I met scientific search engines.
