You
could find relevant material in many chapters. Try brainstorming
on keywords, opening a chapter's page and doing a keyword search
(Ctrl+F).
Here's
one for starters:

Please
don't feel that you must wade through all of Mindweave! It's there
as just one potentially useful resource to draw upon if you want
to see what others might have to say on topics you are writing
or thinking about.
You
might be able to use it to find useful quotes that either support
your own views, or that you could use for contrast or comparison.
Try
to quickly scan or search pages for relevance, and write notes
when you find anything useful or interesting, and bookmark the
page so that you can easily find the URL when you come to do Assessment
1.
You'll
need references for any quotes you include in your report for
LO1. Just make a note of the author(s), year of publication, title,
publisher (if a paper publication) and/or URL at the end of your
report.
Please
use precise URLs that take the reader to the page with the quote,
rather than the home page of a site.
