Instead of a normal class for my CTW, we went to the library to work with an librarian who taught us about contextualized sources.<\/strong><\/p>\n

I had already felt fairly confident in my contextualizing sources skills, but I learned a few things.\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n

We began class with two videos that described scholarly articles. These were both fairly clear and basic but one thing that I found particularly interesting is that they journal articles in different fields tend to have different standards. The librarian explained that peer reviewed articles generally have a shorter length than those in the humanities. Additionally, different fields usually have different structures. I found this to be interesting because since they were peer reviewed, there aren’t any absolute guidelines that can weed out the deviant articles. I took this to mean that the scholars in whatever field all gravitate towards one style for many reasons that make it the best for their studies.\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n

Then, she went on to teach contextualization of sources. I think that after writing my bibliographies I grounded the authors effectively although, I did not and context to my source paper for the individual authors at all. The following image shows same ways that a source can be contextualized.<\/p>\n

Contextualizing sources also gives the author credibility which is very important. It draws on the readers logos<\/strong>. I think that contextualizing sources can easily be done wrong, but when it comes to adding a quote to a paper a writer won’t just leave drop a random name then a quote. For a quote to make any sense, readers need it to be contextualized!!<\/strong><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

All in all, context is very important<\/p>\n
