Q Purpose: Now that you've learned the difference between a scholarly and popular article, it's time for you to do some searching of your own! (Note: if you haven't read through the library information, please take a few minutes to do so. It'll save you time in the end!) • Differentiate between scholarly and popular articles • Find scholarly articles using the BC library databases • Cite references using APA format Task: 1. Using one of the BC library databases, find a peer-reviewed, scholarly article about dietary protein. 2. Using the BC library's databases, or Google, find a popular article about dietary protein that relates to your scholarly article. Note: if you use Google to find your popular article, perform a CRAAP evaluation to be sure that it is a credible source. No blogs or non-credible sources. Ideally, this will be from a magazine or newspaper (another good reason to use the databases to find your popular source). 3. For both sources, • provide APA-formatted sources • a brief annotation (summary in your own words). • explanation on why you chose these sources • explanation of how do they support, or disagree with each other? 4. Turn in a word doc with your citations and summaries. Questions about if an article is scholarly or popular? Can't find any articles?
