school help: can somebody please tell me what blood doping is? - Help.com

Blood doping is to enhance athletic profumance through drugs

Actually– it is not drugs– one withdraws one’s own blood– sifts it for the elements that make one stronger and re-injects.

Here is A Quick Guide to Researching Useful Information for Essays and Homework that I found over at Help.com and am borrowing so that we can share it with you that should be helpful right? Hopefully:

1. List key words with which you will search:
• five words or phrases that describe your topic perfectly and simply—how would someone “file” it.
• three words or phrases that “limit” that word or distinguish it from others
example: if I want to know about what makes children in a country sick, I would say: infants, children, illness, sickness—to limit it, I might say: U.S.A. or Africa, most common, etc.
You should use several combinations of these terms to search for your topic.

2. Head to an academic library, whether electronic version or in person. Libraries pay for access to information that you cannot easily find just out there. Plus, librarians are trained to help you. If you cannot do that, proceed to #3

3. Use search engines that are geared to find you more academic sources.
• http://www.academicinfo.us/ — you must click on the topic area and then keep clicking into more specific areas related to your topic.
• this link will not work but if it did you could click on the topic area and then search with one or two of your key words
• http://lii.org/ - you search with key words and Boolean operators
• http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/sites/entrez this is highly technical medical stuff (if you use this, be sure to click on the “limits” tab, then check “free full text” and “review” as the type of publication.)

4. If you cannot do that, use google.com, but don’t just search randomly.

a. First, try entering your key terms and add one of the following: “.org”, “.edu,” “article”. Search three times using all of these terms. This will take you to organizations, educational sites, and articles on the topic.

b. Or, Click on the little “advanced search” next to the Google search box on google..com
• Choose “100 results” to the right
• Enter your combinations of terms and terms you want to exclude

Be sure to evaluate the source, using this guide: http://www.library.jhu.edu/index.html

before anyone tells me to do my homework i have been searching for 2 days trying to find out what it is, i am not cheating i just want to know what it is! please someone help me, this is really important its for my final

I have heard this many times on help.com people accusing kids of cheating or
not doing their work etc.. Be assured that you can get your information
from anywhere you like. Don’t let anybody give you a hard time. This is a free world.
I don’t care if the “man in the moon”told you the stuff it’s valid research.
Go for it.

Well you can use wikipedia as long as you properly cite it, however you should be clear as to whether this is o.k. with your teacher. I don’t see why it would be any less reliable than most websites. One trick I found if your not allowed to use wikipedia is go to the bottom of the page and click on the links to the sites or books used as sources. Get your info from there instead.
