Classroom and Instructional Management: Find articles

A one-stop-shop for finding scholarly articles, books, and more on classroom and instructional management.

Quick Search Tips

  • Use quotation marks to search for a phrase. For example, "classroom management".

     

  • Input each different keyword or key phrase or concept in a different field (search box). For example, "Classroom management" in the first box, strategies in the second field, and “elementary school” in the third will find articles about classroom management strategies for elementary schools. 

     

  • Set search limits such as Peer Reviewed/Scholarly Journals; or by document type, like reports, conference proceedings, etc.

     

  • Sort results by date or relevance, especially if requested by your professor.

     

  • Look at suggested subject headings (sometimes called Subjects) to narrow your search.

     

  • Use truncation, for example, strategwill find results with strategic, strategy, strategies, etc.

 

Keeping a Research Log

It is always wise to keep a log of your research.  That way you will keep track of which resources you visited and which keywords or search terms worked best in each resource. 

Also, if you have a log and need to find additional sources, the most logical ones to revisit are those that indicated they had lots of material.

You can also print out your research strategies and store them in a binder, or convert them into pdf and store on your device or cloud.

Search GALILEO

Find articles in databases - a "medium level" search

Why search within an individual or a set of databases rather than GALILEO?

As GALILEO covers a wide range of disciplines, searching within an individual, or a small set of subject-specialty databases can be more on target and efficient. It is worth trying GALILEO first, and then run a similar search in a subject database/set of databases.
