Alabama Virtual Library Demonstration

AVL Demonstration Video

I chose to look at the GALE PowerSearch Resource. When looking at the available resources this specific resource seemed to offer a great deal of flexibility with its search while also having access to a great deal of academic writings, videos and etc. This resource would most likely benefit those that are high school or above. I do not feel that students who are younger than high school would be able to understand exactly how to utilize the resource to get the most out of it, which is why I say high school and above. I know for myself I will use this resource to search different Health topics for my health classes to help give up to date articles, information and statistics since the text book that we currently use is extremely out of date.

  1. Jeremy, I had not looked at the Gale resource until after watching your video. It seems like a great tool for high school students. Our students also have Google accounts so being able to access articles by logging in with that account will simplify the process for them. You made sure that people can follow your steps completely making it easy for teachers to use your video with students. Great job!

  2. This was a great video!! Very well explained and very helpful! I didn't realize you could save information with Google accounts until I watched your video. All my students have Google accounts as well. I plan to definitely use this next semester when my students do research papers in history.
