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.

If so, what was it? What style did you use for the bibliography: _APA: psychology, education, and other social sciences. _ MLA: literature, arts, and humanities. _ AMA: medicine, health, and biological sciences. _ Chicago: used in some workplaces for citing books, magazines, newspapers, and other non-scholarly publications. _ Or, Other: What are the goals of your secondary research? (Refer to memo if needed.) Format Is each source entry within the bibliography single-spaced (in contrast to the body text of the project document), and is there extra linespace between each such entry? Or if some other formatting, is it easy to follow: to tell where any such source entry ends and where the next one starts? Within each such entry, does the format make it easy to see the difference between the source citation and its annotation? E.g., the source could appear with left justification, and the annotation with a block indent. This paragraph is an example of block indent. With block indent ("increase indent" on MS Word), every line of the paragraph is indented, not just the first line. To the extent there are interviews or surveys, are they cited clearly? For any interview, state last and first name of interviewee, "Personal Interview" (or "Email Correspondence if it was that), and interview date. For any survey you made, start with your last name, first name, then title it, then state date or date range. Illustration: Smith, John. Investigation: Survey of Customers at UMD Book Store, November 2-3, 2028. For websites, are URL, date accessed, name of organization, author, and the name of the article included? For other sources, is author, title, publisher, year, place of publication included for each source? Did the author use an automatic citation generator? In that case, check closely for typos such as errors of capitalization or punctuation. Go to: https://umd.instructure.com/courses/1195822/pages/2-understanding-and-using-citations Was particular citation style chosen used consistently enough to be clear?

Remember that, regardless of whether you choose to write up a given interview, any interviews you do must be cited in your annotated bibliography. If you choose also to make a formal write-up of any interview (as illustrated below), place that in an "Appendix" or "Attachments" section at the end of your project document. Possible goals of interviewing --Get valuable information for your final paper, such as: 1) content ideas for your project; 2)feedback on your project idea, such as thoughts from your approving audience to include in your paper; 3) tips on form for a manual, guide, proposal, website, report, etc. --Practice interviewing particular professionals. Perhaps, as a --(Optional: Learn how to write up an interview.) side benefit, build up your professional network. Details 1. Think carefully about whom to interview and why. Look at your Final Project Memo to remind yourself of your interview goals. Make sure the info you get is going to be relevant to your project. 2. You should test the questions with a friend before using them. See below. 3. Interviews conducted by email are fine. 4. Remember, interviews are a chance to make a good impression and build your professional network. So, don't ask questions you could easily have found answers to by some other means. 5. For some students, interviewing provides background information that is useful for deciding what elements to produce for the project document but that does not furnish actual content. For others, the interviewing provides such content. Either or both outcome is fine. Pre-Interview Preparation: Practice Tips and a Peer Feedback Checklist Do a practice interview with a friend. That will help you conduct a more efficient interview with your actual subject, with less risk. Doing this is optional but highly recommended. 1. Write up your interview questions and agenda. 2. Choose someone to do a practice interview. It can be a friend from class or another friend. 3. Tell your friend the goals of the interview. 4. Role-play the interview. Your friend pretends to be the interviewee, and makes up answers to your questions. 5. As you role play, your friend can give you immediate feedback, such as: I do not understand the question; could you clarify what you are trying to find out here? 6. Afterward: Ask your friend to answer the questions below, while looking at your interview questions. 7. When done, polish your questions and agenda so you will be ready for the real interview. Questions for friend after practice interview: Did the interviewer start with a polite and clear opening? Are any questions unclear? Are there any questions that have more than one part and should be broken down? Do any questions seem like leading questions? If so, how do they work? Could you recommend any additional questions? Did the interviewer either record the conversation or take notes? Did the interviewer thank you for your time at the end? Presenting Interviews as Part of Your Primary Research Remember that, regardless of whether you choose to write up a given interview, any/all interviews you do must be cited in your annotated bibliography. If you are also choosing to write up any of your interview(s), take steps to ensure such write-up is a clearly laid out, typed summary of the interview with the name of the interviewee, your name, and the date of interview. (Make sure you write up the content shortly after completing your interview, while your notes and memory are fresh. You can polish the design later. See example, below.) Do not type up the interview verbatim. It's okay to summarize your questions and to condense the answers-provided that anything you quote directly from it is quoted accurately.
