Overview

For you assignment, you are allowed to use both scholarly and non-scholarly resources as long as they are credible (more on that in Evaluate Source Credibility). Scholarly resources include things like peer-reviewed articles and scholarly monographs. Non-scholarly resources include things like magazine and newspaper articles, documentaries, and interviews. What sets scholarly sources apart from non-scholarly sources is the review process they undergo. Watch the video on the left to learn more about peer review and follow the Prezi below to learn more about the differences between scholarly and non-scholarly resources.
