Directions ►For this Discussion Post you will start the research process for your final essay. First, you should use the lecture and the skills that you honed from last class to try to find three sources that will support your argument. With these skills, you must find at least 2 academic sources to support your Proposal/Essay’s overall. An academic source can be found by using our library databases and only looking for “Scholarly” or “Peer Reviewed” sources. (SEE PPT/Lecture) You will then write a small paragraph underneath each source, where you summarize each source, evaluate the author’s claims, and discuss how you will use these sources for your argument. (Summarize, Assess, and Reflect!). Summarize: Some annotations merely summarize the source. What are the main arguments? What is the point of this book or article? What topics are covered? If someone asked what this article/book is about, what would you say? The length of your annotations will determine how detailed your summary is. Assess: After summarizing a source, it may be helpful to evaluate it. Is it a useful source? How does it compare with other sources in your bibliography? Is the information reliable? Is this source biased or objective? What is the goal of this source? Reflect: Once you’ve summarized and assessed a source, you need to ask how it fits into your research. Was this source helpful to you? How does it help you shape your argument? How can you use this source in your research project? Has it changed how you think about your topic? Your should have 3 Annotations in you Annotated Bibliography. 2 of your sources MUST be scholarly, while the third source can be anything: YouTube, X, Newspapers, etc. Your citations should be in alphatical order and you should have the paragraph underneath each directly discssing the source. Avoid quotations and use this exercise as an opportunity to refine your ability to summarize and discuss how you will use these articles as your sources. Directions Here, you will find the PowerPoint on How to Write a Research Paper and a Video walking you through how to use your research to back-up your argument The PowerPoint is is a .ppt file. You should taking notes on the digital copy on your computer, or taking notes on the story on a separate piece of paper. Additionally, there is a Video that goes through Writing About Research in more detail. While going over the PowerPoint , keep these questions/ideas in mind: Do you have a specific stance on one of the essay topics allowed for the research paper? Do you have a strong thesis statement? Do you have strong topic sentences that reflect aspects of your overall argument? What is a a legitimate source for this essay? How can I use my previous research to support my argument? Did I include the required two peer-reviewed sources? Did I make sure my sources were legitimate? What are some ways I can narrow down my research topic while I am doing research? What are some good keywords to research my topic? How can I use the evidence to prove a point, rather than to replace my ideas? Essay 3-Prompt As a reminder, your essay topic is of your choosing. You find an argument, take a side, and defend your side. You must use 2 scholarly sources and one additional source of your choosing to support your argument. Thesis Hints: Topic + Opinion+ Reasons WHY Choose an article/topic + Opinion on that topic + Why You Think this is true (Online education is an effective mode of education that should be given more resources by the College because it widens accessibility, it allows students to take the course at their own pace, and it will save the college and student money.) Examples of essay topics: Prison reform, Social Justice Issues, Social media is bad for us, Vocational School vs. College, is Tipping Right?, Organ sales benefit lives, and etc. DO NOT WRITE ABOUT: Religion, Abortion, Anti-Evolution, Anit-Vaccinations, and Gun-Control.
