Journal Title 1: Active Learning in Higher Education

Journal Title 2: Journal of Student-Centered Learning

1. Do we have it?
2. Where would it be indexed? (Important to find out especially if we do not have full-text.)

Databases index (aka inventory, record, catalog) resources.  
An index points to something.

Strategies:

1. Journal Finder (journals to which we subscribe)
2. Ulrichsweb Global Serials Directory (indexing information, points to databases)

"Virtually all disciplines have a journal devoted to education" (34) from Engaging in the Scholarship of Teaching and Learning

Even if we do not have a subscription to a journal, we probably have it indexed in one or more databases available to you. In the database you can view abstracts, order articles through Interlibrary Loan etc.
