  3. NOTHING!

  4. Story of my search • When I first started my research I was lost and confused and didn’t understand how to use delicious, power library, EBSCOhost, or the MLA format very well. But, as class went on I understood how to use these better.

  5. My search results • While researching I learned how to get articles off of power library and how to tag them on my delicious page. • I am also beginning to understand the MLA format better.

  6. My growth as a researcher • I believe that I have grew as a researcher because I was able to successfully get information from power library and EBSCOhost. I feel like I have grown because at first I didn’t understand what I was doing very well but now I do.

  7. What I Really Learned • Use bug repellent containing DEET and avoid going into tall grass to avoid getting bitten by ticks. • I learned that there is short term and long term symptoms to Lyme’s disease. Some short term symptoms consists of headaches and a fever and sometimes a bulls-eye shaped rash. Some late symptoms consist of fatigue, sore/swollen joints, or forgetfulness. • Lyme’s disease can be treated by taking certain vitamins. The rash can be treated by Doxycycline or Amoxicillin. • Lyme’s disease sometimes results in death but is very rare.
