Research Guides: Action Research in the Classroom (PACT): Getting Started

Welcome!

Welcome to the Library! This Research Guide will be your portal to accessing all of the various scholarly databases, websites and ebooks that are available through the PC library.

Embedded in these pages will be a series of videos outlining how to use various resources, and those videos will also be linked from the list in this box. We encourage you to move through the videos at your own pace, pausing frequently for some hands' on practice. We will also be holding library "Office Hours" via zoom Wednesdays from 10am-12pm. To make an appointment for a session with a librarian, email Andria Tieman Michney at atieman@providence.edu
