Description: Information is a productive resource for effective teaching and research. Being able to research and use materials to back up your teaching/research in your field of study is an important skill. You need to be aware of where to look for relevant information, how to access it and how to use it effectively. Information sources are of separate distinct categories, primary, secondary, tertiary, and so on. When looking for information on a topic, it is important to understand the value of these sources. Information availability, accessibility, and use are essential to teaching and research. It is one of the critical factors used in determining productivity in research output. National and international recognition and respect are partly determined by published works. This presentation will enable you to identify information sources and services in Science, Technology, Engineering, Agriculture, Mathematics, and Social Sciences (STEAMS) to support your teaching and research activities.
