Narration:  We’re going to do an advanced search, so we’ll click on the Advanced Search link.

In the first search box, type in “project study.”  I’ve putting it in quotation marks to tell the database I am looking for “project study” as a phrase.  From the dropdown menu on the right, choose Document Text.  In the next search box, I’m going to enter Ed. D. and from the dropdown on the right, I’ll choose Degree.  This tells the database that I’m looking for Ed. D. project studies only.  Click on search to see your results.
