Group Source Evaluation

Different Sources
·         Academic Journals: Harder to read, with more details. Great sources to rely on. Thorough research. Reliable information. In depth.  Must be peer reviewed by at least five people. Mostly written by people that already have degrees.
·         Newspapers: Media, not always reliable. Up to date information. Always cites an author. Usually visuals.
·         Printed: Books and magazines. Can sometimes be very opinionated. Unusually cites other sources to work with. Can be outdated.
·         Peer Reviewed: Collaborative information.  People working towards degree, graduate students.
·         Periodicals: Online sources. A source within a source. Bias information. Educated journalist. Examples of New York Times, Wall Street Journal, Economist, New York Post.
·         Government Sources:  Harder to argue with source. Opinion respected in the academic community. Sometimes do not have authors. Backed by research. You have to find out which agency is backing the issue.
·         Scholarly Article: Academic journal, pre thesis statement. Intern research.



Incorporating Sources Effectively

Haroon Ashraf, writing in the Lancet in 2001, wrote in the Science and Medicine Journal, “Although the committee does not support the association of MMR and autism, it does make clear that causality studies do have ‘inherent methodological limitations’” (1341). The study obviously needs more research to prove it’s point being that all the ideas of MMR and autism run parallel they never actually intersect.

Justin Housman tells the story in Surfer Magazine 2014, of How Jay Moriarity “…survived [and that] two decades later his wipeout is still one of the heaviest falls anybody has ever taken. Jay’s Mavericks adventure came at the dawn of the tow-surfing age and the worldwide search for super-big surf [Many other surfers also had also survived wipeouts]. …By the mid-2000s, the paddle-in brigade were throwing themselves over the ledge at Jaws, and in 2012, the jet skis sat idle while paddling hellmen attacked huge, freaky-perfect surf at Cloudbreak during a lay day at the Fiji Pro.”

Chapter Seven

Chapter 7
Lesson for Chapter in
The Bedford Researcher


                Chapter seven explains the importance of saving and organizing your information, findings and sources. For printed information such as hand written notes, web or database print outs, photo copies of articles or book passages and drafts of research question/position paper, these should be organized in file folders with lightly detailed notes on each paper. All information should be organized by topic, date, pros vs cons, material type or author. It is easiest to resort back to these notes if you consistently use the same form of organizing. Each note should include publication information such as author, title, publisher, place and date of publication, web source and URL. Record the date of findings on each note to further help with remembering when and where you found it. Saving digital information is also important. Keeping all information organized in its own file while saved in one main file. Using a Working bibliography throughout the course of your project will also help in the end with a ‘Works Cited’ page or reference list.

Chapter 6
Lesson for Chapter in
The Bedford Researcher


                In chapter six we learn the benefits of properly taking notes in the most effective way. Note taking is important for tracking important information, ideas and arguments. You can keep track of details to add to your document and track your sources, tables, graphs and quotes. While taking notes from your sources you can keep side notes about your own thoughts, reactions and impressions from the authors and sources. At the same time while taking notes also asking questions and keeping your topic or issue in mind. By paraphrasing or summarizing the notes into your own words you can begin the process of building your own document. Notes can be kept on note cards, a notebook, or using a word processing program (need to look into ‘evernote’).
