For this assignment, you will apply the ethical research skills practiced in the Week 1 and Week 2 trainings. This will help you organize and retain important information from your diverse research sources and will prepare you for the writing you will do in the coming weeks. You can use a similar process in any personal, academic or professional research endeavor. Capturing source information will also document your academic integrity. Being able to "show your work" will document your efforts to avoid plagiarism.

Instructions

For this assignment:

  1. Use the Research Reading Journal Download Research Reading JournalOpen this document with ReadSpeaker docReaderlinked here (also available in Files) to capture citations, summaries, evaluations, and notes on at least four quality sources. For each source, include at least three notes. 
  2. Do not use artificial intelligence. This assignment is intended to challenge your information literacy, critical thinking, and communication skills. Do not use any form of AI to develop or revise content (other than DeVry-approved AI tools).
  3. Continue your research. Project research should be ongoing, and you may end up gathering and using far more than the minimum four sources. Most projects integrate information from 6-10 sources. If the Research Reading Journal works for you, keep adding to it!

Research Reading Journal

This research journal can save you countless hours in every college class you take! Here’s how to use it:

1. Whenever you find what might be a good source, capture citation information and a brief summary and assessment. You can keep gathering sources and come back later to read them and take notes.

2. For each source, use the table to capture important information in direct “quotations,” paraphrases or summaries. Save time and avoid plagiarism by including in-text citations with each bit of source information.

3. Add a brief explanation for each bit of source information, then make a note about where you think you might use this information.

4. Complete as many potentially useful annotations as you can for each source. Add more lines if you need them.

5. If you need to take notes on more than four sources, copy and paste more worksheet lines below.

6. Come back to this document as you build your outline and draft your paragraphs. Copy info AND citations!
