A database is an organized collection of information or data, often available in digital form, that students can use to find specific resources for research and study. Academic databases contain scholarly articles, journals, books, reports, and other materials that are often peer-reviewed or otherwise credible.
Students can use a database to search for reliable information on a specific topic, explore academic journal articles for their assignments, find industry reports, or access eBooks for in-depth learning. By using filters like keywords, publication date, and type of resource, students can efficiently find the most relevant sources for their assignments.
