Tutorama: Week Nine: Working With Four or More Sources - Part 1

Part 1 | Part 2 | Part 3 | Part 4

Introduction
This week's tutorial is devoted to identifying the types of sources you are working with in your project, recognizing what each of these types of sources do for your project and learning how to put them together in your paper.

At the moment, you may have a stack of articles and books you've gotten from the library and organizing them into some coherent whole seems like an impossible task, but it's not if you sort through and group them according to the role they play in your paper.

Case Texts:
For those of you not working on a single text (book, movie, piece of legislation or government report), you may have a number of materials that make up your case. Create a stack or file called "case" texts. These are the texts that constitute your case, texts that you are generating a reading of or analyzing according to the terms/ideas in your framing text or texts.
