Discussion: Finding sources

profileSujan Awale

 

  1. Find 2 non-academic sources about your artist, song, or video. Non academic articles include blog posts, interviews with the artists (written or video), podcasts, behind-the-scenes information, reviews, or music journalism. We know a source is non academic if it is not published by a scholarly or University journal. (IMPORTANT: This source CANNOT be Wikipedia, Genius Lyrics, Songfacts, or any website that uses fan-contributed information -- it must be written or uploaded by one or more credited authors or media sources)
  2. Find 2 academic sources (using the databases) about your artist, song, video, or TOPIC. Many artists/songs/videos DO NOT have academic sources written about them, so you may need to wide your scope to consider your topic or main point. We know a source is academic if it is peer reviewed and published by a scholarly or University journal. Academic articles are often written by professors or university faculty and almost always have a works cited or references page of their own research. 

THEN, write a paragraph about your research experience. How did you perform your research? Where did you start looking? What was easy to use? What was hard to find? Do you have any tips or tricks for your peers? Did your research change your mind about anything or give you new/important insight into your paper?
