This assignment requires the students to utilize credible sources, electronic or hard, to ‘discover’ definitions .
However, as part of the assignment, you will choose what sources you want to use!
Any source is applicable as long as it considered ‘credible’.
Students: Please plan on spending about twenty minutes per term locating, reading, and choosing what definitions to use for each of the terms, and then additional time correctly citing your source in APA style.
Again, part of the assignment requires you to locate credible sources for your definitions.
So what if you have never had to use a credible source for a research project before? Don’t worry!
Please contact a librarian or use an introduction to research site to learn what is considered a credible source.
Again, part of this assignment requires that you are going to be the person who determines what a credible source is!
