Hi there!
I am currently conducting research for my pip however for one of my chapters I must engage with an academic paper although I find it hard to research what I am looking for how do I go about it? I've tried my best on the state library website.

Hey there,
Maybe try searching a bit broader before going in a bit narrow? Try searching around on and experiment key words in google until you find a resource that's relevant to your topic so you can find a term that's academically equivalent to your topic.
What exactly is your PIP topic? I might be able to help you out with research.

Hello, my pip is on the topic of Adult Cartoons and how they have become increasingly popular as a platform to explore contemporary issues and social critique.
I need to find papers on the impact/consequences, my teacher said to look for adult satire and its effect.

Hey, Angelina!
Sounds like a super cool PIP topic (I'm actually a huge cartoons fan so this actually aligns nicely with so many of my personal interests) you've got there!
It's definitely wise to engage in academic resources to enhance your PIP. Perhaps you could have a case study on satire as a chapter and how it is used in cartoons to construct representations and comment on social issues in contemporary society. Some great platforms for sourcing academic papers are Academia and Google Scholar :)
Were there any particular cartoons you were looking towards using as your examples?
Angelina ;D

Hi guys! I'm currently in year 12, and I'm still trying to finalise my PIP topic down to the specifics. I'm having trouble narrowing my topic down, especially since I want to write about so many broad things: the evolution of dark humour and meme culture, differences between Western and Chinese humour, how the two different cultures and societies react (with humour) to the same subject, etc. And my teacher is old... like very old, so it's been difficult trying to get him to understand memes in general. I was wondering if anyone could help me with coming up with a specific focus question?
Thank you!!!
