Report on Authoritative, Trade, and Popular Sources
Our first project was a report on different kinds of sources. Looking at the dry and straightforward nature of this project, it might be difficult to think of ways to significantly change it.
Instead of just copy editing and fixing errors, though, you do need to make dramatic changes to this report to satisfy the assignment.
Use the following option to revise the attached report.
Successful revision depends on how well you execute the revision choice.
Significant Revision Option:
1. Add three additional sources to your report. This is the most straightforward option. By adding more sources to your analysis, you can determine if what you have already said remains true with more data points.
In order to do this well, you will need to fully incorporate the new sources into your existing structure you can’t just add them at the end.
Consider how transitions will need to be adjusted to accommodate the new content. Additionally, you will have to be sure to properly cite (both in- and end-text) your new sources.
If you choose to add new sources, at least one of them has to be an authoritative source. You may choose trade or popular sources for the others (that is, you can add one authoritative and two popular sources, OR one authoritative, one popular, one trade, OR one authoritative and two trade, if you choose).
To reemphasize, be sure to properly cite (both in- and end-text) your new sources. If you choose to add new sources, at least one of them has to be an authoritative source.
Read the entirety of the original report to understand how to implement the additional sources for the revision.
This is just a revision by adding three additional sources, citing them properly (in-text and end-text), implementing those sources’ information within the body of the report, and updating the reference page and annotated bibliography with the new sources information.
