Learning to Use the Gale Virtual Reference Library

                                Learning to Use The Gale Virtual Reference Library

With our recent assignment in my CTEC 115 class (Internet Research & Living Online) I have learned to make use of the Gale Virtual Reference Library within our Clark College Library database. While using the GVRL I choose the topic of the internet as the main subject. While browsing for encyclopedia and articles I came up with many keywords for subtopics: Digital revolution, careers, security, education, sports, movies, computer viruses/infection, computer ethics, cyberspace, cyberculture, communication, and AI (artificial intelligence). One article I found that was interesting was in the encyclopedia of Science ,Technology and Ethics. The article was titled "Artificial Intelligence" by author Ed. Carl Mitcham. Vol 1. Detroit: Macmillan Reference USA, 2005. P.110-113. The article talks about the uses of AI and history of AI which is a much older concept than I originally thought. I used this subtopic of AI to conduct a search on Wikipedia which I will discuss on my next post.
