emphasize that the information retrieval and writing processes aretightly connected, and the aim of our course isto explain this to the students. When this connection is articulated the students will improve their skills in retrieving information thatwill prove useful during their writing.enabling students to writea good thesis is deeply connected to empowering students to communicate what they havefound through their research. That is; studentsneed to communicate their findings throughdialogue and present their research orally orthrough writing. encourage studentsto write as they enter the virtual or the realclassroom by asking them to formulate ideas,through brainstorming, mind mapping, thinktexts, first drafts, and tentative outlines. Theseare all based on information retrieval connected to identifying and defining a thesis focus,where research questions function as a guiding light.we aim to empowerstudents to become part of the academic community: by accessing information intellectually, by using information critically, creativelyand ethically, and thereby helping to completethe research paper.
