9 W HAT IS A SCHOLARLY ARTICLE ? Scholarly articles have undergone a peer review process prior to being published in a reputable journal. According to the Encyclopedia of Evaluation, peer review is:Encyclopedia of Evaluation Peer review refers generally to the evaluation of professional performance or products by other professionals and, more specifically, to a set of procedures for evaluating grant proposals and manuscripts submitted for publication. For peer-reviewed journals, content-matter specialists are asked to judge a manuscript, often using specified criteria and blinded to the author's identity. The journal editor considers reviewers' comments and decides whether the paper should be published, rejected, or revised and resubmitted. Similar procedures are used to review grant applications. Critiques of the peer review process focus on the low reliability of reviewers' recommendations, but the goal of peer review is to make good and defensible judgments rather than to have high reliability. Peer review is an example of an expertise-oriented approach to evaluation.

10 W HAT IS A DATABASE ? From the Encyclopedia of Health Care ManagementEncyclopedia of Health Care Management A database is an organized collection of data that can be manipulated to produce information specific to a user's needs. Conceptually, a database is an electronic filing system with an indexing structure linking to specific data elements. …The basic element of a database is a field, or variable. Each field in a database is specified as a fixed (maximum) number of characters, each equivalent to a byte of data. The data elements may be text, such as a patient name, or numeric, such as a birth date…A group of related fields is called a record.

11 S CHOLARLY A RTICLES – ERICERIC ERIC, or the Educational Resources Information Center, is a database of educational literature sponsored by the U.S. Department of Education. There are several ways of searching ERIC: ERIC through ProQuest, a subscription provided by the library that links to our full text holdings. ERIC through ProQuest ERIC through WilsonWeb, a subscription provided by the library that links to our full text holdings. Also allows simultaneous search with Education Full Text database.Education Full Text ERIC.ed.gov – The government’s official ERIC website. Search functions are not as powerful, but it is sometimes updated before subscription services. Linking to full text can be more difficult. ERIC.ed.gov

12 ERIC THROUGH W ILSON W EB From library website, select Education Full TextEducation Full Text Open Database Selection Area Unmark Selected Databases Check ERIC Use the Thesaurus to identify the controlled vocabulary used to search ERIC You can also search ERIC simultaneously with Education Full Text, or any of the databases listed in the Database Selection Area However, the controlled vocabulary will not work across the databases, so you will have to keyword search

32 W HY C ITE ? In scholarly research, readers must be able to go to the original source to verify the ideas and facts that you rely upon to make your argument.

33 APA R ESOURCES American Psychological Association. (2010). Publication manual of the American Psychological Association (6th ed.). Washington, DC: American Psychological Association. 1 Publication manual of the American Psychological Association American Psychological Association. (2007).

All citation and formatting rules found in this presentation are from this source. Check this area of each slide for a page reference.

34 A CADEMIC I NTEGRITY & P LAGIARISM Your ideas supported by the research of others Paraphrase or direct quote Always cite ideas of others Readers can easily find ideas or facts referenced in your paper Copy & paste writing of others Weak paraphrasing does not alter the original author’s writing sufficiently Too many direct quotations No citations to ideas of others Improper citations Readers are unable to verify facts or ideas presented in your paper Scholarly ResearchPlagiarism

35 D EFINING & S OLVING P LAGIARISM Using another’s words without acknowledgement Solution: Use quotation marks or paraphrase and cite the source with in text citation Using another’s ideas without acknowledgement Solution: Thoroughly use in text citations to acknowledge work of others; If in doubt, cite! Insufficiently acknowledging the contributions of another’s ideas to your own research (i.e.-paraphrasing a paragraph but only citing a direct quote at the end) Solution: Thoroughly use in text citations to acknowledge work of others; If in doubt, cite! “I forgot I read that idea in that article, so I didn’t cite it.” Solution: Take good notes throughout the research process. A citation management tool like Refworks helps you stay organized. “I missed that reference when I went back through my first draft to add citations.” Solution: Note sources throughout notes, outlines, and drafts.

36 H OW TO P ARAPHRASE Be sure you understand the original text – you can’t summarize something you don’t understand! Take notes as you read, writing summaries of important points for your paper. Some students find note cards to be a useful note- taking/summarizing tool Set the original aside while you write your summary A paraphrase does not contain ANY phrases given in the original – completely your own words Should be your own voice, matching the rest of your paper

37 One or Two AuthorsMultiple Authors Shyles (2002) notes that analog signals are continuous. Shyles’ 2002 study noted that analog signals are continuous. Analog signals are continuous (Shyles, 2002). Severin and Tankard (2001) claim… (Severin & Tankard, 2001) Osgood, Suci, and Tannenbaum (1957) found… (first time cited) Osgood et al.
