Week 2 Journal

Think of a topic that is of interest to you and you may want to use for your final project. How would you go about finding information on that topic?

In your journal, first write briefly what the topic is and why you are interested in it. Then describe the steps you took to find 3 sources of credible information that can help you understand the topic better. How do you know that the sources are credible?

For the steps, literally describe what you did – did you Google the topic; did you use a library (how, what tools); what keywords did you use for the search; etc.

Include citations and references if using someone else’s ideas or thoughts. Journal entries should be ± 300-400 words.
