LET’S WATCH THIS SHORT CLIP ABOUT THE IMPORTANCE OF FINDING AND

CITING YOUR SOURCES!

IT’S ALWAYS IMPORTANT TO CITE OUR SOURCES,

AND TO CITE THEM WELL. THIS MEANS WE HAVE TO CITE OUR SOURCES IN A BRIEF AND CLEAR WAY.

ONE OF THE MOST POPULAR WAYS TO DO THIS IS BY FOLLOWING

THE MODERN LANGUAGE ASSOCIATION (MLA) CITATION METHOD.

RESEARCH PAPER: COMPILING A RESEARCH

BIBLIOGRAPHY•MLA Method of Citation:–Can be applied for books, journal articles, and electronic/online resources

RESEARCH PAPER: COMPILING A RESEARCH

BIBLIOGRAPHYWe need to do this so the reader• can verify our sources and feel

secure that we have not plagiarized• will have a list of sources for further

reading• can estimate the ‘value’ of our work

based on range, timeliness, and reliability

RESEARCH PAPER: COMPILING A RESEARCH

BIBLIOGRAPHYThe BEST SOURCES for any scholarly research are any products of, likewise, scholarly endeavors.• Scholarly Books, Journals, Vertical Files• Interviews, Reliable Surveys

RESEARCH PAPER: COMPILING A RESEARCH

BIBLIOGRAPHYRemember that you must look for a source to fit your objectives, focusing question or subordinate questions. DO NOT look for a source first then ask questions later.

RESEARCH PAPER: COMPILING A RESEARCH

BIBLIOGRAPHYRemember that there are TWO

MAIN KINDS of sources:Primary: obtaining raw information

(experiments, surveys, interviews)

Secondary: documents/files written about the same topic (journal articles, books)

RESEARCH PAPER: COMPILING A RESEARCH

BIBLIOGRAPHYRemember that your paper’s

value is directly proportional to the reliability of your sources. The better your sources, the better your paper will probably be (your analysis weighs heavily too).

RESEARCH PAPER: COMPILING A RESEARCH

BIBLIOGRAPHYYou can find the MLA Citation rules on pages 174-188 of your textbook.

We will practice this in the next session.
