Keyword search using only significant words in the assignment topic, but you may have to search for concepts separately
E.g. “consumer behaviour” AND scarcity

Add more words to focus search, make it more specific & link with AND
“consumer behaviour” AND (scarcity OR shortage OR deficit )

Use synonyms (alternative words for concept) & link with OR
E.g. scarcity OR shortage OR deficit
E.g. “consumer behaviour” OR “purchase behaviour” or “behavioural research” OR emotion 

Use “phrase searching” to keep phrases & terms together 
E.g. “consumer behaviour”
