WEEK $2$: COURSE PROJECT $-$ RESEARCH NOTES

Due Jul $22$ by $1$:$59$am Points $90$

Course Project $-$ Research Notes

For this assignment, you will apply the ethical research skills practiced in the Week $1$ and Week $2$ trainings. This will help you organize and retain important information from your diverse research sources and will prepare you for the writing you will do in the coming weeks. You can use a similar process in any personal, academic or professional research endeavor. Capturing source information will also document your academic integrity. Being able to "show your work" will document your efforts to avoid plagiarism.

Instructions

For this assignment:

Use the Research Reading Journal linked here $($also available in Files$)$ to capture citations, summaries, evaluations, and notes on at least four quality sources. For each source, include at least three notes.

Do not use artificial intelligence. This assignment is intended to challenge your information literacy, critical thinking, and communication skills. Do not use any form of AI to develop or revise content $($other than DeVry$-$approved AI tools$).$

Continue your research. Project research should be ongoing, and you may end up gathering and using far more than the minimum four sources. Most projects integrate information from $6-10$ sources. If the Research Reading Journal works for you, keep adding to it$!$
