摘要：
This article presents the results of a survey of the data base searching abilities of first-year education students. The methodology used was two-fold: a qualitative approach based on the direct observation of the students and a quantitative approach using a questionnaire. A total of 24 students participated in this project. The results indicate that the students experienced difficulties in the first stage of the research process, namely the definition of the information need. Therefore, it becomes apparent to improve their ability to define the topic to be researched.
