Library and internet research to find relevant written information in books, journal articles, government documents, and reports. You can think of secondary research as secondhand knowledge. You are not getting the information first, such as through a survey or interview, but second-hand, via someone else's written report or analysis. Because it is second-hand, you must take care to ensure that the source is trustworthy. What is required? In the F.P. Memo, you cited at least three sources, annotated. The Final Project must include an Annotated Bibliography of at least eight sources offering two to four sentences about each source. Each annotation to each cited source summarizes something about it that's relevant to the content and/or your production the Project document. This Bibliography component is worth 10 percent of the final project grade. That Bibliography score reflects the quality of the research and how it's used for the project. For example, if you interviewed an audience member, did you follow worthwhile tips that person provided? Of course, in your Bibliography you may cite more than eight sources, but in any case only eight of your citations must be annotated. What is a secret to success in secondary research. Find good sources by starting research on time, weeks before final due date. Keep track so you can cite it all properly when writing. What secondary research will I need to do for my final project? You must cite a minimum of eight (8) sources in your bibliography. Of those, at least five (5) must be from authoritative journal articles, books, or trade organization websites unless otherwise agreed with instructor. The other three can be articles from well researched and edited periodicals, such as Atlantic Monthly, New York Times, Wall Street Journal or Washington Post. For exceptions, first obtain the instructor's agreement. You can use any sources approved on your memo. Interviews and surveys can count partly toward the eight - see below. Acceptable publications include: Books, including professionally edited encyclopedias, print or online. Articles from professional and scholarly journals (online versions are fine). ✓ Articles, data, or reports from credible websites (such as the websites of government, nonprofit, educational, or trade organizations) ✓ Commercial publications relevant to the subject area of your document -- assuming you can establish the source's credibility and its relevance. What about textbooks? They don't count toward the minimum eight unless you've previously cleared that with the instructor, but in any case do cite any such use (e.g., use for a direct quote). car Scanned with CamScanner 41 2 May I count Wikipedia or Encyclopedias as part of my 8? Wikipedia, no. Professional encyclopedias (online or print), e.g., as shown in UMD library's "Credo" database, yes, to the extent approved in your FP memo conf. For professional audiences, Wikipedia is useful only as a starting orientation because its accuracy depends on input volunteered at random by amateur contributors. In your bibliography, do cite all sources consulted, including any that don't count toward your 8 minimum. Provide your reader current resources specific to your subject. What citation style should I use for my final paper? See your FP Memo. You may choose whatever citation style is logical for your major and your assignment type - with this exception: So that the instructor can more easily spot-check any online source used, please include the URL for any such citation, even if the particular citation style you've chosen does not require it. Also, use the "Citing" page link in the UMD library module referred to in this course: https://umd.instructure.com/courses/1195822 □ APA: psychology, education, and other social sciences. MLA: literature, arts, and humanities. AMA: medicine, health, and biological sciences. Chicago: used often in the workplace, for citing books, magazines, newspapers, and other non-scholarly publications. Other: Example of an annotated bibliography? After studying the above ELMS instruction on this bibliography form, for each source used for your project, write the citation and 2-4 sentences about key information from the source and the relevance to your project document's content. FP Memo Draft version When drafting the bibliography for the Final Project Memo, some students may find they're writing in the future tense and not necessarily as specifically as when finishing their annotations for the Final Project. That's because, in writing the FP Memo, you are just getting started on identifying your research and how it might inform your project. Still, in your FP Memo, write more specifics than such as this: "The article had good ideas for fundraising." Instead, try: "The article appears to recommend diversifying one's fundraising strategy. I might apply this idea by adding more fundraising events to the proposed marketing plan for this organization." Final Project version When you update and revise your annotation comments for the Final Project bibliography, you can include more specifics and do so without writing in the first person. To illustrate: DON'T: Instead of, "I liked the interesting ideas about fundraising in this article," you could write: DO: Scanned with CamScanner 9 3 This article's analysis of a fundraising event includes a social media campaign schedule and Personnel budget. Those samples inform the Timeline and Budget sections I've composed for this final project fundraising plan." (If you want to be even more concretely informative, and can be, you could continue: "The analysis suggests that two decisions - to prescribe certain Facebook messaging in particular, and to start it fully six weeks before the campaign launch - boosted the amounts raised from younger donors. That result informed the decision to compose the 10 Facebook messages attached as Appendix C to this fundraising plan." Yes, in this particular "DO" example, your instructor breaks his own warning against use of first person, but notice how that use could easily be edited out or into the language ("...sections [I've] composed...", "...the 10 Facebook messages [which I've] attached as..."). While some Final Projects do and others don't include first person in the body text, that choice doesn't necessarily affect use of first person in final-drafting of an annotated bibliography: each annotation is a short analytical report, not a journal entry telling the story of how you unearthed a source or what it meant to you personally. You're not its audience. What format should I use for citations in the actual final paper? Some student projects may require just the annotated bibliography. Most will also include footnotes, endnotes, in-text citations or parenthetical citations for certain references in the body of the final paper. For example, a quotation or use of another's idea requires such citation. Be consistent. Strategies for Secondary Research - Sample: Manual on Century Biking I'm writing a manual about how to train for a 100-miler bike event. What types of books or articles could I use? Books about document types - "How to Write a Sports Event Manual" Articles about physiology of training - "The generation of new muscle tissue through anaerobic exercise." Journal of Exercise Physiology. Case studies - "Octogenarian Wins 100-mile Ride." Washington Post. What citation style do I use? Chicago or other style likely suffices for such a manual. What format? Bibliography, with a few in-text citations for the actual manual text. What primary research is required? Beyond what was completed for the FP Memo, no such research is required, but it is recommended for most projects. In above example, interviewing or surveying people could reveal the audience for such a manual and inform its content. 1. Cite all surveys and interviews even though they may not count as more than 2 one toward your minimum of 8 sources without prior approval from instructor. 2. If you write up each interview (or survey) following the model below - about 1 page per write-up-you may receive 1 point extra credit for your project, up to 2 points. CS Scanned with CamScanner 43 8 Primary Research Survey Design -- Form and Tips The surveying you do for this class will most likely not result in data that is statistically significant. (I encourage you to take a statistics or research class to learn about statistical significance.) But you should still aim to make your surveys as valid, credible, and useful as possible by: * Surveying a meaningful number of people (The actual number will depend on your research.) * Obtaining relevant diversity in your sample (this could mean diversity in age, gender, ethnicity, major) Avoiding leading questions such as "Do you agree that the current training is inadequate?" Providing anonymity for all who take the survey Putting careful thought into survey design and testing your survey on some peers and getting comments before administering the survey Before polishing your questions, ask yourself the reasons why you are doing the survey. The type of question you use should follow from the goals of the survey. Goal: Gather qualitative data Question type: Text, short essay Example: Ashley wants to gather information from practicing dentists that might be useful to current pre-dental students: What advice do you have for pre-dental students? Goal: Develop a list of possible solutions to a problem Question type: Text or short essay Example: Julie wants to come up with ideas for improving recruitment of volunteers. Think about a time you volunteered recently. How did you find out about the volunteer opportunity? Goal: Weigh a list of possible solutions to a problem Question type: Ranked multiple choice Example: Ashley is deciding what solution she will recommend to the problem of lack of hands-on training for pre-dental students. How do you think UMD should address the problem of lack of hands-on training for pre-dental students? (Rank from 1-4 in order of preference, with 1 being your first choice.) Mandatory full credit class Optional full credit class Assistance in finding internships at dental offices Optional summer program at the UMD dental clinic Coal: Identify people willing to take action CS Scanned with CamScanner 48 or any Optional Interview Write-up -- A Peer Feedback Checklist Who gave feedback: Who wrote up the interview: Before using this checklist: Ask your peer what the interview's goals were. When: 1. Does the interview state the name of interviewer, interviewee, and the date of the interview? 2. Does the document have an appropriate title? 3. Are the questions bold and answers not bold? 4. Are the questions grammatical? 5. Is the basic grammar and punctuation of the answers correct? Note that sentence fragments are okay, and informal language is okay if it reflects the actual interview, but you should correct punctuation of interviewee if, for example, they emailed the answers. 6. Is there white space after each question and answer? (See the sample interview in this packet. Does it look basically like the sample?) Is it easy to read? Suggestions for readability? 7. Any other suggestions for improving the write-up? 8. Any comments on the content of the interview vis-à-vis the goals of the interview? Tips for use and placement of an interview write-up and/or a highlighted quotation Such interview write-ups are usually best placed, not in the final project's body text nor in its bibliography, but in a section for Attachments or Appendix (call this section by either term). If you do a writeup, then in the bibliography citation for that interview your annotation can be quite short, alluding to the included writeup: "For a summary of this interview, see Attachments [or] Appendix." In some cases you might like to pull a quote from the interview to highlight in your paper, as in the Nustration offered below. If need be, to ensure an interviewee is comfortable being quoted directly in a document, e-mail the proposed quote to the person just to clear it with them. Also notice the footnote appearing below for an example of one way to reference such an interview quotation in your project paper. Evidence of Interest in an Arts Curriculum at Anderson Elementary "My son Mackie loves to fingerpaint. I think art activities are what have made him love his class. Without an arts program at Anderson, he complains that school is too much work and not enough fun. I want him to love going to school, so I work to ensure we maintain an Arts- Integrated Curriculum." -- Hennie Malcowitz, Parent' Maicowitz, Hennie. Personal Interview, by Jennifer Alvarez.
