Education Fulltext
Education Full Text is the online version of the paper Education Index. This database covers periodical (magazine and journal) articles only. Searches may be limited by full text, page image, peer reviewed status, date, document type or physical description. A useful feature is “Expand” which also searches the full text of the articles (when available), not just the citation and abstract.ERIC(Education Resource Information Center)
ERIC is a combination of two databases: Cumulative Index to Journals in Education (CIJE) and Resources in Education (RIE). RIE covers non-journal education documents, such as reports, conference papers, curriculum guides, etc. Several versions of ERIC are listed on the database list. By using the Advanced Search screen, you can limit your search by document type (e.g. guides-teaching), source, format, or date. Many of the more recent ERIC documents can be accessed online by clicking on the full text link. Older ERIC documents are available on microfiche in the Library, and are arranged by the six digit ED number. The ERIC database is available at FAU through two commercial vendors and the government web site. The commercial vendors are recommended because they allow connection to the full text of journal articles using SFX, which the government web site does not (yet).InfoTrac OneFile
A one-stop source for news and periodical articles on a wide range of topics. Search results can be limited to refereed publications and/or articles with full-text availability.Kraus Curriculum Development Library (KCDL Online)
