first social justice research post
alright, my research for this project will revolve around human rights in Saudi Arabia. I would like to find out how internet censorship affects women's rights to free speech, education and information gathering. I was able to find a few articles related to this topic by entering the reseach button in Sakai, continuing into academic search complete and starting an advanced search. search terms that i used included: internet censorship, saudi arabia, women, rights. at first this search was too specific and i ended up finding articles by only plugging in the first two search terms. i plan to go back in and search terms such as freedom of information, free speech and filtering of information.

whoo-hoo! yes!!
this is the kind of full-on stream-of-consciousness blog entry i was hoping for!!
yay!
ok...
you're off to a great start!
try a search on a few terms.
then take those same terms and search them in google scholar.
what's the difference?
i like the women angle... will be very interesting to see what you come up with.
if you're have trouble just w/ iran, you may want to expand your search to include the middle east. or perhaps islam / islamic countries...
keep up the good work!!
