When searching by author or work title, be aware of any article which can support your ideas. The title of the work doesn't necessarily have to include your thesis idea.
These ideas are considered in your InQuizitive readings and essays. Remember the ACE is available to help you include your thoughts on the work. If ACE is closed, you can request help from NetTutor through your course in Blackboard.
