What problem are you solving, & has it been done before?
CRITICAL INDUSTRY FOCUS
What problem are you solving?
Planting water wise native plants on steep slopes using drones
Take a few minutes to generate keywords that you can use to search on.
Each column represents a concept.
Within each column list: broader terms, narrower terms, related terms/synonyms, and alternate spellings
Let's use a question from the class to keyword OR the Example above
| Concept #1 | Concept #2 | Concept #3 |
Has this idea actually been done?
Let's research!
Try a Google Search (General web based search)
Note: the images filter can be helpful to identify a similar product (if you need to "see it")
Try the "shopping" filter - is something similar for sale?
Try the news filter - are there articles?
Challenges with Google:
Tons of articles, more need to evaluate your sources.
Primary research:
Visit stores and look at shelves.
Record your observations: price, etc.
Try OneSearch - (this searches for articles using the Library website)
OneSearch is the library's search across different source types.
Did you discover potentially relevant information?
