Assignment 4.2: Source
Review—Collaborative Activity (Deliverable: Discussion post)
Description
For this assignment, you will choose the sources of information for your
research writing assignment and post them to the discussion board. Then you
will evaluate the reliability and depth of the sources your partner chose. (Note: You are to use the research topic you developed in last week's
discussion.)
Instructions
1. Review the strategies for finding and evaluating sources in
Chapter 8 of your textbook.
2. Compile a list of possible resources for your research writing
assignment.
3. Post your list of resources to the discussion board along with
a description of your goals for the paper and/or a tentative thesis statement
if you have formed one already. For each resource, include identifying
information such as the author, title, publication details (place, publisher,
date), and a brief description of the source’s content and focus.
4. Now evaluate your partner’s resources using the standards of
quality described in Chapter 8. Post your evaluation of your partner’s
resources to the discussion board.
Writing

Your initial post should be a minimum
