1) Students have an obligation to present authentic evidence to readers and properly cite sources. Common knowledge may not need citation, but new ideas, research findings, and unique ideas should be cited. 2) Direct quotations, ideas directly taken from sources, and facts/statistics must be clearly cited using a standard format like APA or MLA. 3) When evaluating websites for research, check the author's credentials, the accuracy and objectivity of the information, how current it is, and whether enough information is provided. Evaluate authors by searching for their other publications.

Review of Literature
This document discusses the importance and process of conducting a literature review. It defines a literature review as a critical analysis of previous scholarly research on a topic. The key points made are:
1) A literature review provides context for a research problem and helps identify gaps or inconsistencies in existing knowledge.
2) Sources for a literature review can come from primary research directly conducted by authors or from secondary sources that analyze and summarize other studies.
3) Steps for an effective literature review include developing a bibliography, organizing sources thematically, identifying additional areas needing more research, writing individual sections, and integrating those sections.
In Text Citations in Writing Research
This document discusses two citation styles - MLA and APA. MLA style is commonly used in the liberal arts and humanities for formatting manuscripts and citing sources within essays and works cited pages. APA style refers to rules established by the American Psychological Association for documenting sources used in research papers. APA style requires both in-text citations and a reference list, with a full citation for every in-text citation and vice versa. The document provides examples of citing sources from books and websites using both MLA and APA styles.
Rrl techniques dr. ronnie amorado
The document discusses writing a literature review (RRL) for research. It provides tips for writing an engaging RRL, including interacting creatively with literature through various techniques like inventorying, resonating, comparing/contrasting, reinforcing/debunking ideas. The RRL should show the researcher's ideas balanced with properly referenced existing literature. Writing RRL is like developing a script with a clear flow from intro to body to conclusion. It is important to organize literature and develop logic and transitions between ideas.

Review of literature
This document provides guidance on conducting an effective literature review for research. It defines a literature review as an account of what has been published on a topic by other scholars. There are two main types of sources: primary sources that are directly being written about and secondary sources that discuss other researchers' work. An effective literature review is not just a list of sources, but includes evaluating and commenting on previous research, identifying areas of agreement and disagreement, and assessing source quality and findings. The literature review should be organized based on the research question and help define the thesis, identify gaps, avoid repetition, and position the research in the existing literature.

1� The New Social Worker Spring �007
Considerations in Writing a Literature Review
by Kathy Black, Ph.D.
Literature reviews are ubiquitous in
academic journals, scholarly reports, and
social work education. Students taking
social work courses throughout the cur-
riculum, including Human Behavior and
the Social Environment, Practice, Policy,
and Research classes, are frequently
asked to write literature reviews for a
variety of reasons. Literature reviews are
often done within the context of writing
a paper and sometimes done as a mini-
assignment, perhaps setting the frame
for a broader paper, exposing students
to the breadth of information available
on a topic area, or demonstrating skills
in critical thinking and writing ability.
However, there are some
general guidelines to follow
when writing a literature re-
view. This article will briefly
outline key points for you to
keep in mind when writing
literature reviews for social
work.
Getting Ready
To begin with, you
will need to ascertain the
purpose of the literature
review. At the very least, be
aware of the purpose, scope,
and length of the literature review, as
well as the writing requirements. This
requires clarifying the purpose (Is it to
simply overview a broad or specific area of
inquiry, or is it expected to be comprehensive
or systematic?), scope (How much informa-
tion is needed—three scholarly sources? Five
or 10 sources? Are there any limits to the
inquiry? Perhaps a focus on distinct ethnici-
ties or time periods?), and length (Is the
final review expected to yield one page or
10 pages of review?). You should also be
familiar with required writing styles, such
as American Psychological Association
(APA), and other expectations, such as
double spacing, font size, and so forth.
Once purpose, scope, length, and writing
expectations are ascertained, you can
embark on conducting your search for
literature.
The Search
Searching for literature is quite easy
these days. Today, much information
is available electronically, and you can
obtain literature just about anytime and
anywhere. To begin the search, take ad-
vantage of library resources available to
you through your college or university.
Libraries often offer group or personal-
ized training in accessing information,
and librarians are often available to help
on specific topic assignments, as well. If
you are a student, you will be exposed
to search engines and databases such as
Social Work Abstracts and procedures for
accessing or requesting books, journal
articles, and reports that relate to your
topic.
Although information is also widely
available through the World Wide Web,
not every site offers credible informa-
tion. You can learn from your library
about criteria to evaluate the legitimacy
of information. One increasingly popular
source of information is Google Scholar
(www.googlescholar.com). This site has ac-
cess to professional journal lis.
Annotated BibliographyThis is a major assignment in the course..docx
Annotated Bibliography
This is a major assignment in the course.
The annotated bibliography is a key component of the scaffolded process of research writing. It demonstrates your ability to identify appropriate scholarly sources in different media; it encourages you to reflect on the materials you have read in your research; it hones your ability to summarize arguments by distilling the most important information from a scholarly source; and it directs your readers towards more sources on the topic that may be interesting or helpful for them.
The annotated bibliography should be undertaken only after your research questions have been approved and you have conducted a broad initial survey of potential sources.
Assignment: Compose an annotated bibliography of FIVE scholarly (peer-reviewed) sources related to your research question. Your sources must include scholarly book chapters and scholarly articles, and it may include scholarly sources on the web. Your bibliography should use APA or MLA citation style, and each of your annotations should be between 150-250 words long. Please see the “Guidelines” below for more information.
*
Guidelines for the Annotated Bibliography
What is an annotated bibliography?
· An annotated bibliography is a list of sources (such as scholarly articles and/or books) that illustrates different points of view about a topic. It’s useful to think of an annotated bibliography as a presentation of “the conversation” that scholars are having regarding a specific topic. An annotated bibliography allows you see what research has been done about your topic, and how your research could fit into the larger conversation. The annotated bibliography is very often the point of departure for a larger research project or paper.
What is the form of an annotated bibliography?*
· In an annotated bibliography, each citation to a source is followed by an annotation—a brief (approximately 150-250 words) description and evaluation of the text. The sources in your annotated bibliography must be listed in alphabetical order. Use MLA or APA citation style when listing your sources. If you are not familiar with these citation styles, please consult a current research handbook or go to the DYC Library’s .
· The annotation follows the citation. The annotation is a brief (150-250 words) summary and evaluation of the scholarly source. The annotation usually contains the following components:
· A brief but thoughtful summary of the points of the scholarly book chapter, article, or web source that are relevant to your research question.
· An evaluation of the source, where you critically assess the reliability or validity of the author’s claims.
· A statement about how the author contributes to “the conversation.”
*Note: Different professors may have more specific requirements for your annotated bibliography; always be sure to review these requirements and speak with your professor or with a Writing Center tutor if you have any questi.

It’s useful to think of an annotated bibliography as a presentation of “the conversation” that scholars are having regarding a specific topic. An annotated bibliography allows you see what research has been done about your topic, and how your research could fit into the larger conversation. The annotated bibliography is very often the point of departure for a larger research project or paper.
What is the form of an annotated bibliography?*
· In an annotated bibliography, each citation to a source is followed by an annotation—a brief (approximately 150-250 words) description and evaluation of the text. The sources in your annotated bibliography must be listed in alphabetical order. Use MLA or APA citation style when listing your sources. If you are not familiar with these citation styles, please consult a current research handbook or go to the DYC Library’s .
· The annotation follows the citation. The annotation is a brief (150-250 words) summary and evaluation of the scholarly source. The annotation usually contains the following components:
· A brief but thoughtful summary of the points of the scholarly book chapter, article, or web source that are relevant to your research question.
· An evaluation of the source, where you critically assess the reliability or validity of the author’s claims.
· A statement about how the author contributes to “the conversation.”
*Note: Different professors may have more specific requirements for your annotated bibliography; always be sure to review these requirements and speak with your professor or with a Writing Center tutor if you have any questi.
Chapter 3
This document provides guidance on conceptual and theoretical frameworks, literature reviews, hypotheses, and definitions of terms for research. It discusses that frameworks provide perspectives and models used by researchers to organize their work. Theoretical frameworks apply theories to explain phenomena, while conceptual frameworks graphically present concepts and relationships. Literature reviews help establish connections to prior work, theories, and accuracy of research questions. Hypotheses tentatively explain variable relationships and must be testable. Definitions of terms clarify meanings within a study. Organization and criteria are outlined for effective literature reviews.

Research Question andCitations
The Research Presentation begins with a research question and a bibliographic search. You should identify 2 to 4 studies that address the same research question. Please send your References to me with citations written in APA style --see APA Manual of Style, 6th ed. -- no later than the date listed in the Calendar. I will use your Research Question to peruse the titles to make sure they look like original reports of empirical studies that are all on the same research question, and I will do an APA check on one of your citations. No grade will be taken; however, part of your presentation grade depends on using appropriate articles and writing your References page in APA style. If you are in doubt about whether a study is an "original report of an empirical study," feel free to attach it to the Citations and RQ email. Please start early on this assignment and plan to spend several hours searching for the right kind of articles that are all on the same research question. If you need assistance with APA style, please consult the Kail and Cavanaugh text References for many examples of APA-style reference citations.
A sampling of possible topics is listed here, but please feel free to examine other topics of interest. It helps to define your topic in terms of the “effects of X on Y in Z population.” For example:
Effects of X...
...on Y...
...in Z population
Example Research Questions
pretend play, parenting conflict, violence, divorce, alcoholism, daycare, self-esteem, social isolation, untimely death of family member, homelessness, early reading, eating disorders
intelligence, creativity, school achievement, social well-being language development, attachment, identity, physical health, dating practices
preschoolers, elementary school students, children, high school students, infants, adolescents, seniors, young adults
1. What are the effects of pretend play on language development in preschoolers?
2. What are the effects of pretend play on school achievement in elementary school students.
3. What are the effects of family violence on social well-being in adolescents?
4. What are the effects of peer pressure on academic achievement in middle-schoolers?
NB: Please make sure that the items you choose for each "variable" in your research question work together sensibly.
Examples of relevant journals at the ISU Cunningham Memorial Library include: Developmental Psychology, Human Development, Infancy, Adolescence, Child Development, Social Development, Childhood and Adolescence, Family and Community Health, Family Relations and Child Development, Merrill-Palmer Quarterly, Journal of Experimental Child Psychology, Journal of Educational Psychology, Journal of Child Language. There are many other journals that also publish empirical reports of studies on human development. Increasingly, reputable journals are available online.

Literature Reviews
Planning and Writing Them
1
You’ve done the hard part!
You did your secondary research with your annotated bibliography
Now, take that research and compile it into a cohesive, useful narrative that explains the “conversation” around the topic you’re going to be looking into
2
What is a lit review?
Lit reviews usually are at the beginnings of research articles
Summarize the “conversation” on the subject and establish why your study is important
Look at Zakreski article, Greene article – see in the beginning of their articles, they summarize and explain what others have had to say about the topic
Your annotated bib should easily transition into what will be the first part of your paper, the literature review.
Duggar has lots of citations; 16 in her bib. She talks about lots of different ideas here to lay the groundwork for what she is going to do
Greene has fewer, but has more to say about them
3
Three functions of a lit review
Your literature review will become the first part of your research paper. Thus, it should do three things:
Include a short introduction that defines or identifies the general topic, issue, or area of concern, thus providing an appropriate context for reviewing the literature (this is called establishing a territory)
Synthesize other research on the topic, explaining what is known about it
Conclude by stating what is missing, what is controversial, what is not yet known, or what needs to be resolved in the discussion. This will provide the transition later to your own study and your research questions (this is called “establishing a niche”)
4
How do I write it?
Your literature review should synthesize all the information from your annotated bibliography
You can organize the information chronologically
You can organize the information by topic
by least-most recent studies or vice versa; clump everything by what was found, what
5
How do I write it, con’t
Your lit review should have an intro, body, and conclusion
This is not true of ALL lit reviews, but it is a good general rule to follow
The intro will serve at the intro to your paper
The body will establish the “conversation”
The conclusion will serve to transition your paper into a discussion of your study
The body can (and probably should) have multiple paragraphs, based on how you’ve organized it
6
About the conclusion
In the conclusion, you want to establish why your study is important
You need to somehow point out a gap in the knowledge, a question you have about other research, or a counter-point you want to raise
If you can’t prove that your study authentically adds to the conversation, then you really shouldn’t be doing the research
Leads to your methods section

Literature Review and Research Related Problems
This document provides guidance on conducting a literature review. It discusses what a literature review is, the major reasons for doing one, and the search process. A literature review establishes the context and rationale for a study. It involves reviewing previous research to learn about research design and how a project can contribute to the field. The search process involves identifying a topic, reviewing secondary sources to get an overview, developing search terms to identify primary sources through databases and libraries, checking references, and networking with others in the field.
Publish perish
Under the academic adage "publish or perish," would Galileo receive tenure at the University of Pisa today?
Sure, he was smart- he proved Copernicus's theory that the earth moves around the sun.
But what about his publishing record? Galileo took 6 years to write his treatise, The Dialogue on the Two Chief World Systems: Ptolemaic & Copernican. Church censorship, peer review, & plague caused further delays, & 3 more years passed before the book was published (not by a university press).
How original was The Dialogue anyway? Was Galileo simply proving Copernicus's ideas?

In this article, the author addresses some challenges to information
searches and information evaluation which were brought by the
Internet. Large segments of audience are exaggerating their
awareness and do not realize that their online behavior is driven
more by emotions than by critical assessment of primary sources.
The result is growing popularity of conspiracy theories,
pseudoscience, propaganda, and alternative medicine. These are
all examples of biased reasoning. Due to scientists, scholars,
teachers, and journalists, this trend can be considered as a potential
threat to public health and democracy. Publics incapable of
informed choices can be manipulated to sup.

For the second major writing project of the semester, you’ll produce a comparative rhetorical
analysis by choosing between two different options—scientific or political discourse—and
finding and comparing two instances of rhetorical discourse. Whatever option you select, you’ll
need to address the same questions as you develop your understanding of rhetorical discourse
and the way different discourses address differences in rhetorical situation:
1. The question of exigence: What is the discourse about? What need or purpose does the
discourse address? What fundamental values are at stake? What is the discourse trying to
accomplish—and how successful is it?
2. The question of the rhetor: Who is—or are—the rhetor or rhetors? Who is responsible for the
discourse? Who created it? Does the rhetor successfully establish ethos? Why or why not? How
does the discourse itself invoke a particular rhetor? Who sponsored the discourse, and how?
3. The question of audience: For whom is the discourse intended? To whom would this
discourse appeal? Who is the actual audience, and who is the audience invoked or imagined by
the discourse itself? Does the discourse invite the audience to adopt a new role, a new identity?
4. The question of constraints: What constraints did the rhetor have to take into account—what
factors outside of the discourse and beyond the rhetor’s control might influence the audience’s
response to the discourse? Are they negative or positive constraints? How did the rhetor
accommodate those constraints? Was the rhetor successful?
5. The question of genre: What is the genre of the text, and what purpose does this genre
typically serve? How do audience expectations of the genre contribute to our understanding of
the exigence, the intended audience, and the rhetor? What constraints does the genre
introduce?
These constituents of rhetorical situations aren’t an outline for your project; you won’t march
through each of them in succession in the body of your project. Rather, they’re your initial
research questions that will help you to analyze thoroughly the rhetorical dimensions of the texts
you select.
The form and structure of your project will depend, finally, on a refined research question that
will develop out of your research and your understanding of how your chosen texts work.

Assignment GoalThe goal of the assignment is to strengthen scien
Assignment Goal
The goal of the assignment is to strengthen scientific thinking and writing. The
objective is for each student to write an objective, logical, fact-based paper using
evidence from high quality scientific research sources.
Topics
In general terms, your paper can examine selected consequences of social
inequality. Throughout your textbook, the author presents examples of how social
class impacts the lives of people. Some obvious examples are health, including
mental and physical illness, or parent’s social class and children’s educational
attainment. Each of the chapters on the major social classes examines the behaviors
and consequences of that class. Your paper could explore on of these issues in
greater detail. We are also seeing that race and gender are deeply interrelated with
social inequality. You could dig deeper into one of the problems or issues identified in
the book, or you could pursue some other thesis that links social inequality and race
or gender. The paper could be based on the work of Karl Marx and would use mostly
Marx’s writings.
The Major Social Factors
• Social class
• Gender
• Race/ethnicity
• Age
Your Paper Must Have A Thesis!
Your research paper must have a thesis. At the beginning of the paper, you must
state your research thesis. It can be part of a short introductory paragraph or it can
stand alone.
The following explanations include materials that are courtesy of Empire State
College, Online Writing Center.
www.esc.edu/online-writing-center/resources/research/research-paper-steps/
Research Topic
When you start working on your paper, you begin by selecting a topic. A topic is
what the essay or research paper is about. It provides a focus for your writing.
Choose an appropriate topic or issue for your research, one that actually can be
researched. Many topics can be found in your textbook. Example: “Attention Deficit
Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD)”
Research Question
The next step in developing a thesis is to formulate a research question. Start by
listing all of the questions that you'd like answered yourself. (This assumes you are
curious about the topic!) Choose the best question, one that is neither too broad nor
too narrow. In the early stages of your research, you can use a search engine to
learn about the question and explore what high quality sources are available.
Sometimes the number of sources you find will help you discover whether your
2
research question is too broad, too narrow. Example: “Why have ADHD diagnoses
risen so rapidly in recent years?”
Research Thesis
A research thesis is your proposed answer to your research question, which you
finalize only after completing the research. (It's okay to modify and revise the
working thesis as you research more about the topic or issue.) Thesis example: “The
rise of A.D.H.D. diagnoses and prescriptions for stimulants coincided with a twodecade
campaign by pharmaceutical companies to publicize the ...

Anthr 1: Third Assignment Due: Friday 11/22/2019 by 11:00 p.m.
This assignment is worth 30 points No late papers will be accepted.
Assignment Overview
The topic for this research paper is deceptively simple: When and how did we become “human?
This assignment is a Position Paper in which you are to take a position on the topic (based on your personal understanding of the material presented in this class) and support your position by reviewing, discussing and citing reputable research sources.
A. Your first paragraph must explain your definition of what it means to be “human”, ending with a thesis statement that encapsulates your plan to support your position.
B. IMPORTANT: This assignment covers only from the past 2.5 million years ago to today.
a. DO NOT include discussion of species prior to 2.5 million years ago.
b. DO NOT include discussion of the development of bipedalism for this assignment.
C. Present and analyze the current scientific research regarding this topic.
D. Your paper must end with a clear and concise conclusion that recaps your argument and restates your thesis.
So … how do I do this?
1. Introduce and define the scope and focus of your paper in a concise thesis statement that appears at the end of your first paragraph. A thesis statement tells the reader what the paper is about.
2. Support your position as stated in your thesis. Ways to support your position include discussing physical aspects of hominin evolution over the past 2 million years (what changed, what species, what impact?), genetic aspects of hominin evolution over the past 2 million years (what derived, what species, what impact?) and/or cultural aspects of hominin development (what changed, what species, what impact: changes in stone tools, social group behaviors or interactions, symbolic representations, etc.). What is your supporting evidence for your position on when did hominins become “human” in the last 2 million years?
3. Read and refer to at least three different sources (more sources are recommended). DO NOT use Wikipedia or similar crowd-contributed websites as sources of information for this paper. Talk with the college reference librarian for help in finding appropriate research for your paper. You may use links in the class power points to research further sources for your paper (NOT the power points themselves).
4. Recap and conclude. Your conclusion must include a restatement of your thesis and clearly reference your analysis and position on this topic.
5. Submit your completed assignment by clicking on the Turn-It-In link at the bottom of the Assignment page on the course website.
IMPORTANT:
Submit your paper as a Word doc or .docx or as .rtf or .pdf file. Canvas does not accept work submitted in .pages or as Google Docs, Google Drive shared documents or as ZIP files. I cannot grade your paper if I cannot open it!

Early us history
Early American colonists came to America for religious freedom and economic opportunity. The Puritans established the Massachusetts Bay Colony in 1630 seeking to build a "city upon a hill" as a religious example. Tensions grew between the colonies and Britain over issues of taxation and representation, leading the colonies to declare independence and form a new nation in 1776 with the signing of the Declaration of Independence.
Translation and politics 1
This document discusses translation and politics, specifically the linguistic strategies used in political discourse. It is assumed that a source text exists and certain features are transferred to the target text. Politics involves the distribution of power and governing. Political rhetoric aims to persuade through speech or writing on political themes. Language can influence power relationships. Euphemisms and dyseuphemisms are weighted words used for political purposes, such as referring to relationships, races, or genders. The document examines examples of persuasive or loaded language used in political contexts.
Tourism translating local knowledge
The document discusses tourism translation and provides examples of tourism websites for the Lofoten region of Norway. It examines the purposes and differences between the Visit Lofoten and Lofoten Info websites. Both sites aim to advertise locations, events and facilities to attract tourists, inform tourists currently in or planning to visit the area, and provide information to speakers of both native and additional languages. Visit Lofoten appears to be an official tourism board site, while Lofoten Info may be independently authored. The document also discusses implications of the translator's task to create a text that arouses desire in the target reader to visit a destination.
Summary, paraphrase, synthesis
The document discusses summary, paraphrase, and synthesis as techniques used in scholarly essays. It defines summary as a shorter version highlighting major points from a longer text. Paraphrase is restating a text using different words, and serves to contextualize and reinterpret a quotation. Synthesis involves combining multiple sources to provide a deeper understanding of their relationships and the topic.
Basic paragraphing
Paragraphs are collections of related sentences dealing with a single topic. Each paragraph should focus on one main idea. A topic sentence states the main idea and is often the first sentence, but can be placed elsewhere. The topic should be fully discussed without being too short. Cohesion and coherence are important for paragraphs. Cohesion refers to explicit connections between sentences like repetition and conjunctions. Coherence is the semantic property that makes a paragraph understandable through a logical sequence of ideas.
Editing
Academic writing is writing done for college or university courses. The audience is typically professors and other students. It is an ongoing process of drafting, revising, and editing rather than a single product. Effective academic writing communicates clearly to readers through careful attention to both content and form. Editing techniques like reading drafts aloud, examining paragraph structure, and checking for consistent information patterns can improve content and clarity. Proofreading ensures proper spelling, grammar, and mechanics. Writers should continuously edit and proofread to produce high-quality academic work.
Basic elements
The document discusses the basic elements of an academic essay, focusing on developing a strong argument. It notes that an effective argument should be narrow, supported by evidence, and address a meaningful point. Additionally, an argument needs to be reasonable, comprehensible, and manageable for the assigned length. The document also outlines different modes of argument like compare/contrast, definition, and analysis that can be incorporated into an essay. Finally, it stresses that good arguments are built on thoughtful research questions.
