Working on a project or paper about a controversial topic? Find overviews, news, and opinions on hundreds of today's important social issues organized by different viewpoints.

I’d recommend this database for this type of assignment… |
Research on typical high school subjects such as popular books and authors, scientific concepts, historical events and people, and other high school subjects. |
Any assignment that is based on current debates such as Cell Phone Use in School, TikTok bans, or Inflation. Topic guides make it easy to go from a viewpoint article to different articles to provide evidence for a different argument. |
This database contains reference materials so if you can’t find materials in the In Context databases, this may have more coverage. |
This database is focused on environmental issues; it is not restricted to just scientific research but covers environmental issues across science, social studies, and the humanities. |
