Searching and Evaluating Scientific and/or Mathematical/Analytical Resources

Search and Evaluate

This week, you will find three scholarly, peer-reviewed research articles on your topic. Remember that next week you will submit a paper on Scientific and/or Mathematical/Analytical perspectives of inquiry, so use this week’s assignment to prepare materials and collect information for that purpose.

Use articles that will help you explain and describe scientific issues and/or statistical data or economic information related to your topic. You will analyze and evaluate these articles in your submission, which should include:

• A brief introductory paragraph.
• Three separate paragraphs, one for each of the three articles, each presenting:
  • A brief 3–4 sentence summary of the article (use in-text citations)
  • An explanation as to what makes this source credible
  • An explanation of why the article will be useful in addressing your problem or issue
• A brief conclusory paragraph
• An APA Style reference list on a separate page

Your paper should be 1–3 pages in length (including the References page). Adhere to APA Style throughout.
