Research in the Library & Computer Lab

What are you researching? 5 Genocide Questions These 5 questions must be answered in your journal with your research.

Sources These are books and articles written that discuss your current day genocide and the genocide questions. You will need 5 sources. You must have 5 different sources, at least 1 non-fiction book or reference book and at least 1 database article. In your diary, each time you answer each genocide question with your sources, you will need to provide parenthetical citation.

How will I find my sources? You will use the books in the library, Gale database, and internet sources. Mrs. Angelette will remind us of how to use these. Take notes while she is teaching. I will not reteach this information. Once you find your 5 different sources, make photocopies or printouts of each.

What do I write down? Write down your works cited information at the top of each of your (photo)copies. Use the MLA Source guide that you were given to find out how to put this information into order and what you need. Highlight information in your sources that you will want to include in your journal. *Write down the question number that the highlighted information answers.

3 Days of Research Your research will be checked at the end of two research days in order to assess your progress. If you do not make any progress, points will be deducted from the progress grade of your research paper. Thursday, 4/5—Library Monday, 4/9—Library Tuesday, 4/10—Computer Lab
