Russell Beale, School of Computer Science

Location: UG40, School of Computer Science
Host: Pascal Honore

An informal and quick run through some of the tools and resources that you may find useful when doing research for your MSc (or PhD) projects, plus some advice on tools and approaches to maximise your potential and create an effective project.

Tools covered - blogs, google scholar, citation management tools, reference tools, writing skills, and so on.

Talk will probably be about 30 minutes, plus as long as you like for questions. Targetted at MSc students doing summer projects, but early PhD students may find odd fragments of interest.
