The goals of research are woven throughout your reading, writing and oral communication assignments for this class. I will be assessing your research in several assignments:<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Three preliminary class and small-group\u00a0assignments focused on information literacy, and critical reading and thinking skills; two response papers (RP 4 & RP 5) that focus on your research project in the later-half of the semester.<\/li>\n
  2. Independent research for the seminar paper that begins with a research question<\/strong>, compiling a list of sources for an annotated bibliography<\/strong>, writing a short proposal<\/strong> on how you intend to address the topic in light of your research question, an finally, the seminar paper<\/strong> that presents your research to support a governing claim.<\/li>\n
  3. Keeping a regular blog of your independent research on a communal society that requires you to locate, read, evaluate and analyze several sources related to the topic. The six posts on your blog will be part of your research e-portfolio that is 10% of your final grade<\/strong>.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    To build your information literacy through this semester’s research you will be required to attend two sessions, both scheduled during regular class meetings.<\/p>\n

      \n
    1. Scott Pennington (CTLT Liaison) will be assisting us with the WordPress training for your e-portfolio on Wednesday, March 2.<\/li>\n
    2. Lynda Kachurek (Boatwright Library Liaison) will be leading a library session on Monday, March 21st in the Boatwright Computer Classroom (B-26) to equip you for your research and critical reading of sources for the final seminar paper.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n
