- No. Even though this source looks like it comes from a credible organization (the american society of registered nurses), the
group does not seem to go through the process of peer review for their publications and their articles appear very subjective.

As you complete #3: Keep in mind that each chapter should have a concise introduction of the topic and target audience:
● Explain who you’re addressing, what their situation and possible struggles are, and why they will likely benefit from the
resources you’ve compiled
● Provide an overview of the topic, why it is worth addressing, and how it intersects (negatively) with students’ academic work
and careers. You may want to define terms or delineate the topic’s scope, provide a historical overview, address recent
developments and trends, or expected changes.

4. Citing Your Sources (summary, quotation, paraphrase) Chris
a) The way you present sources says something about how you align yourself with the original source/author(s). What are the
differences between these types of citations:
● I agree with Miller (2000) regarding…
i. Phrasing the citation this way displays your opinion of someone else’s work. This separates the author from
yourself and is a good way of appearing objective about the source.

c) Revisit Pullan, 2009 and Dusselier, 2005. What is the authors’ stance, respectively?
- Pullan (2009) believes that technology has increased the capacity to teach students, but support is still needed. Additionally,
they note the vast difference between modern college students versus college students from past generations. These include:

doing instead of knowing, multitasking and staying connected. Finally, they suggest institutional change to meet the needs of
the learners and further research is needed to identify these needs.
- summary, page 248
- Dusselier (2005) thinks that women and US citizens experienced greater stress than men and international students. Other
noted predictors of stress were conflicts with roommates or faculty members. Finally, alcohol use was a positive predictor of
stress, while drug use was a negative predictor.

d) What stance will you project when synthesizing the sources in the beginning of the chapter?
- When synthesizing sources in the beginning of the chapter, we plan on being as neutral as possible. We will present
information as objective opinions and avoid appearing subjective. We will use reporting verbs that weigh different arguments
and make claims that we believe are true but cannot prove.
e) Given the task you have to complete for the guide chapters (introduce topic and audience, then present resources), what
form(s) of source integration will you likely use for the different components and why?
● Introduction of audience and topic: for the introduction, we want to give an overview of the topic and present sources
in a way that gives an argument. The reason is because we will not provide our reasons for why the sources are
important, so we will use reporting verbs that present information without seeming to take a stance.
● Presentation of resources: When we get into the presentation of the sources, we will have more space to present our
reasons for using the sources and we can use reporting verbs that are less neutral to emphasize our points.
