Identifying Scholarly Journal Articles

Identifying Scholarly Journal Articles

Q Scholarly journal articles are the foundation of the sources for an academic research paper. Of the six sources required for your research paper, at least three must be scholarly journal articles. Please review this webpage from the UMUC library: Identify and Locate Scholarly Journals Then, search the UMUC library for sources related to the effects of technology in some area. This may be the topic that you have worked with in earlier discussions and/or the topic of your research paper. Identify one scholarly journal article, and post a reference entry for it here, in APA style. Remember that you are accessing the article online, so you should include the DOI or the URL of the journal homepage, as explained in this library tutorial. Explain how you could tell that this was a scholarly journal article. Please also post a substantive response to another student's post. For example, maybe you can help a classmate who has an error in APA citation. Or maybe you have a comment on the person's choice of a scholarly source.
