Introduction
This page currently includes presentations used in conjunction with the Merit College Advising Program (MCAP), as well as two others which cover the Information Search Process, both the aspects that are a "Creative Discovery" and the way research interacts with personality in "Research: What's My Type." I will add more projects as I have time.

Information Search Process

The presentation above is on the first steps in the research process, which should be a "Creative Discovery". Carol Kuhlthau's Information Search Process is utilized and feelings of anxiety and confusion are normalized in the process to encourage the student to start early and keep on track.

Research & Personality

Introducing one to both Carol Kuhlthau's Information Search Process and the MBTI (Myers Briggs Type Indicator) conclusions are drawn regarding how people of different personality types approach research and helpful tips to help them with possible roadblocks to successful research.
