  1. HSB4M: ISU Phase Two –Gathering and Reviewing Credible and Academic Research from Primary and Secondary Sources

  2. The goal of this phase is to find credible and valid academic research from sources that will support your hypothesis. • In citing secondary sources, you are finding ways to answer your original research question. • The research you discover should help build the credibility of your research report. • Remember that you are looking to find information that answers your specific research question and that is related to your hypothesis. Expectations

  3. Resubmit your research question, variables and hypothesis. You may edit them from phase 1 based on my feedback. • Explain the 3 arguments you intend to find research for – these will be the topics for your 3 main body paragraphs. • You must find 2 credible and academic sources for each of your arguments Cover Page

  4. You are to seek out SIX (6) separate sources of research that are related to your research question. For each source you must do the following: • Answer questions to evaluate the validity and credibility of the research source. • Properly cite the source using APA format. • A list of at least 5 research points taken from the source that will be expanded on in your paper. • A short paragraph that explains how this source relates to your hypothesis. • Make sure to consult the criteria for selecting proper sources and for filling out the templates from class lecture (ISU Phase 2 PPT on ClassNet. Research Sources

  5. Set up the following format for each of your 6 sources: • (You can find a word document of this template on ClassNet – titled ‘ISU Phase 2 - Research Sources Template’) Format

  6. Secondary Sources Primary Sources University Journal Articles – a study explaining the purpose, methods and conclusions of the topic Transcripts of actual interviews or case studies – done by a credible source • Use information from research that has already been accomplished • Summarize, connect and analyze data and results from credible research sources • Government statistics • University studies • Credible journals… Sources

  7. For this Phase DO NOT USE: PLEASE USE: Government articles and statistics A university article A study done by a credible organization (i.e. United Nations etc.) The library database – articles An organization that is connected to your topic/issue – i.e. Alcoholics Anonymous Academic books on the issue • Wikipedia • Blogs • Someone’s personal website • About.com • Magazine articles • Newspaper articles • Lecture notes from class • Textbooks Academic SourcesWhat sources to use (or not):

  8. Explain why the author/organization is a reliable and credible person to be writing the article. Reasons can include: • They are a university professor who has done research in the field with this issue • They are an organization that is connected directly to the topic/issue • It is a government source • It is a primary research study done by social scientists • Expand on your explanation – you may need to do further research on your author to make sure they are credible and/or academic Credibility of the Source

  9. Make sure to use your sheet and the websites (provided from the lesson) as a guide to properly complete the APA format • Do not lose marks for small and careless errors APA Sourcing

  10. You must include at least 8 research points from each source • These may include quotes or statistics or facts • DO NOT overuse quotes – most of your information should be paraphrased (still needs to be sourced) • Make sure to include enough information • Each point must be properly in-text sources using APA format Research Points

  11. What AREN’T research notes? • Cut and paste copies of online encyclopedias, journals, web sites, etc. • Word for word copies typed out of a book or magazine • Facts about your topic that you already know • What ARE research notes? • Paraphrasing (own words) of information that is relevant to your topic • Word for word replication of statements that cannot be paraphrased—with the author’s name, date and publication included • Dates, statistics, concepts relevant to the topic • How you think this source related to the topic Research Points

  12. You must provide a small paragraph explaining how your source is related to your research question variables and hypothesis. • Specifically, you are explaining how the information form this source helps prove (or goes against) the argument in your hypothesis. Connect to your Hypothesis
