Research Springboard

To help get you started on your topic, below are some reliable places to find information for your assignment

Databases - an excellent source of information, as everything has already been assessed for for you

EPIC - an umbrella of databases for students in Aotearoa. Try using 'Research Starter' or check out articles on Matariki
Username: cuthberts
Password: 42cuthberts 


JSTOR - more suited for senior students, JSTOR provides access to more than 12 million academic journals, articles, books and primary resources
For our username and password details, please look at the Frances Compton Library MyCollege page



Websites - we've given you a couple to begin with. If you find additional websites it's important to think about whether the information is credible (top tip - use an evaluation tool, like the CRAAP test, to decide whether you can trust a website)

NZ History - a government website (produced by the Research and Publishing Group of the New Zealand Ministry for Culture and Heritage, Manatū Taonga)
Te Ara - The Encyclopedia of NZ - a great starting point for all questions about Aotearoa 
Te Papa Tongarewa - Museum of New Zealand - the National Museum of Aotearoa has great collections on te ao Māori 
Te Wānanga o Aotearoa - a learning envrionment where people can learn te reo and more. Have a look at their Te Iwa o Matariki page 
​
​Documentaries - below are some reliable documentaries but remember, like websites, you'll still need to access a documentary to ensure the information is trustworthy

Books - titles in the Senior Library on this topic will be library use only.
