Phase 2 - Research and Planning - Critical Investigation
1. Decide upon your secondary texts - articles or journals ideally.
2. Print them out.
3. Write a summary of each text:
include:
a) who / when /where
b) main ideas / arguments
c) key quotes
d) strengths and weaknesses of arguments - for example - how much is mere opinion or surmise - and how much is based on research / (supposed) evidence etc.?
e) How reading these text is developing your own generation of a thesis.
4. Post each article on your blog and send me the link
Thank you. Mr Baines

Now here's the referencing guide - your essay must be a proper, bona fide academic document, and must therefore keep within the conventions of footnoes and referencing (essentially, saying where you got your information from).
