Research Notes Taking for Dr. Smith Harvey

College English

Research Notes Assignment

Due: Week 12 by class time via Blackboard

Worth: 5%

Directions (read carefully):

Choose 3 (three) of the research sources you included in your Research Proposal. (Articles or single chapters will be more suitable for this activity than whole books. Use sources from your Proposal if at all possible).

For each of the 3 sources, please do the following:

Create an APA citation for each of the sources at the beginning of each set of notes (list it at the top of the first page).

Make a complete set of point-form notes, thoroughly paraphrasing/summarizing the key information wherever possible (in your own words), and clearly identifying quotations where necessary.

For sources that have page numbers, list the page number – in brackets - after each point or quote. For web sources without page numbers, indicate the section in which the bit of data was found - in brackets - at the end of the point or quote [e.g. (FAQ) or (About Us)]

At the end of each set of notes, determine what the in-text citation should look like for each source & list it [e.g. (Ali, 2007, p.__) or (Amnesty International, 2014)]

A cover page is NOT necessary this time, as you will be submitting via Blackboard.

Here are the sources from My Research Proposal, just choose 3 sources and complete the task which is asked above.
