» Research/Preparation for Project 2: 
anno­ta­tions of 5 schol­arly sources (see list below) to poten­tially use in wiki entries dis­cussing popular/network culture

• Include full cita­tion for each entry
• Anno­ta­tions = 3 sen­tences (min.)
  Dis­cuss the source con­cisely and pre­cisely, thought­fully address­ing 3 main ques­tions:

  Note: All dis­cus­sion should be your com­men­tary (no need to quote author)— con­sid­er­ing the source mate­r­ial for this par­tic­u­lar purpose/assignment; reflect­ing thought­ful and focused con­sid­er­a­tion of research mate­ri­als (infor­ma­tion literacy).

  1. Con­cisely state the main point of the source
     (can sum­ma­rize briefly; restate the main point/idea in your words) 
  2. Iden­tify the most use­ful and/or unique qual­ity of this source
     (“eval­u­a­tive” in this sense): what ideas, terms, con­cepts, issues, etc. appear uniquely in this read­ing?
  3. What is the poten­tial use/value/application for our project? (most impor­tant)
     Pro­pose how you might/plan to use this source in your wiki entry (be spe­cific, even if spec­u­lat­ing)

     — optional: dis­cuss any lim­i­ta­tions or con­cerns; if it is suitable/relevant (qual­ify); or/and if any clarification/elaboration is needed to bet­ter use this source concept/term.
