what is the most important chapter or section from this textbook, and why?
believe showing how to annotate effectively is important to see. However, I think reviewing this chapter first would be much more helpful. It has taught me how to ACTUALLY take notes and understand my research better. Before learning this, I was just memorizing dates, finding resources that barely supported my argument, and trying to force connections between all my sources throughout my research.
Write brief summaries of each stage of thought or if appropriate each paragraph, mirroring the article’s order.
I like using this extension much more than just writing notes or summaries for an annotated bibliography. I think it would be. helpful way for me to get started on the types of resources ill be using, and. a good starting point for summaires I would have to write.
an Annotated Bibliography for each of your sources. An annotated bibliography is a basic summary of the main ideas, claims, and arguments of your source or author, in addition to the MLA (or other formatting style) citation of the source.
it's actaully really great that we can go over this and explain how to do it and what it is, because I'm working on this for another class.
The authors do not have to agree on a certain claim, necessarily, to be clustered together in the same category of ideas. What you are starting to do here is introduce your various authors to each other, to bring them into the “same room,” to meet each other and have ‘a conversation’ that will eventually show up in your essay.
I like this same room analogy, becuase to be honest creating a mind map, and gathering multiple resources can sound really daunting. Especially if you think you have to find 10 different resources where all of the authors agrree. iI'm sure you could find them, but they may or may not be credible.
Wikipedia is one of those sites that can't be given credit, because it is able to edited.Possibly using this as a place to use other works cited would be good
Google scholar
This was something I was actually thinking about earlier. I have used google scholar previously, and worked wonderfully.
public audience
it's important to know who your audience is, because this will help you determine any kind of motives they may have, or the level of willingness to listen
“How” and “Why,”
this definitely feels like it barely scratches the surface, and doesn't leave room for very stimulating conversation
The more relevant the issue and/or the population is to you, the researcher, the more meaningful the reading, research, and writing process will be.
I also think the writing process would be much easier, and you're not going to be struggling with "oh no I'm not gonna meet. y word count," because you care about what you're writing about
open-ended questions
Learning how to ask open ended questions is exceptionally important, because there's a chance you may go into a profession where you need to become good at asking them to effectively do your job
