Organizing research articles can be challenging. Printing articles or saving them in various locations gets confusing for students and are often lost or forgotten. To make research easier, Gale has teamed with Google to allow students to save Gale database articles straight to their Google Drive…including the citation information! *happy dance*
Our dual credit English class learned about this new tool last week and was very excited about how easy it was to use. I’ve never seen so much excitement about research before! 🙂
Here’s how it works:
- Sign into Google within a Gale database.
- Find an interesting article.
- Highlight important information or add notes.
- Select download from the tools menu and save to Google Drive.
- You will find your document in your Google Drive under the folder of the database you were using.
- Now you can edit the document, share it with others, and take advantage of all Google Drive features!
