  1. Hi, Ashley:

    You are getting the idea about identifying key concepts and linking using boolean connectors. Remember to use quotes around the phrases so the database searches for the words next to each other, "vehicle emissions".

    Cheers,

  2. Oh yea...okay thank you Andrea. By the way, you have been really good at teaching this course. It has been very helpful to me with my English class as well, because we are getting ready to write our final papers and it is a research paper. I'm very excited to use some of these search tips to find what I need to better my final paper. :) I just wanted you to know I appreciate you.

    Thanks,
    Ashley
