Identifying Scholarly Journal Articles
Scholarly journal articles are the foundation of the sources for an academic research paper. Of the six sources required for your research paper, at least three must be scholarly journal articles.
Please review this webpage from the UMUC library: Identify and Locate Scholarly Journals
Then, search the UMUC library for sources related to the effects of technology in some area. This may be the topic that you have worked with in earlier discussions and/or the topic of your research paper. Identify one scholarly journal article, and post a reference entry for it here, in APA style. Remember that you are accessing the article online, so you should include the DOI or the URL of the journal homepage, as explained in this library tutorial.
Explain how you could tell that this was a scholarly journal article.
Evaluating Web Resources-
Sometimes you may want to use sources that you found on the free Web. This means sources that are available to all, for example through a search engine.
If you use sources from the free Web, you will want to evaluate them first to make sure that they are reliable and appropriate for inclusion in your paper.
Please examine this webpage from the UMUC Library: Evaluating Web Resources
Then, use a search engine such as Google to find a source related to the effects of technology. Again, you may use the same topic you have used for prior discussions and/or your research topic. Provide the URL (the web address) of the source. Write a paragraph evaluating the source for use in a research paper. You might decide that this would be a good source to use in a research paper, or you might decide that this would not be a good source to use in a research paper. Either way, provide your reasons.
