Rutgers' animated research tutorial could be a good resource for introducing or refreshing research techniques in a clear and simple way.

Rutgers' Riot is an animated research tutorial.

Rutgers' Riot plays like a five part animated movie. Each part of the movie features characters explaining an aspect of the research process.

The five parts are...

  • selecting a topic,
  • finding sources,
  • choosing keywords,
  • identifying citations, and
  • evaluating sources.

Note: There are text documents available to accompany the videos.
