A. Sources
I have found five potential sources so far and have read four of them. (See the working bibliography below.) I have written source evaluations for three of the listed sources, and have made 28 note cards for them. Two of the sources below are full-text PDF articles found using the Library’s Summon search engine; two were found on the Internet using Google Scholar and Magportal, respectively; and one was found in the Library’s print collection of current journals.

C. Source evaluations
ENGLISH 214SOURCE EVALUATION # 1
NAME: Ali Al-Ali ID: 201012340 SEC/SN: 99 / 28
REPORT TITLE (Provisional): The Effects of the Chernobyl Nuclear Disaster
1. THE SOURCE
How long is your source? 3 pages.
How did you find the source?: I typed in “Chernobyl nuclear disaster effects” into the Summon search
engine. This article was the third on the list.
Write a complete APA reference for your source:
Day, A. (2011, September 18) Cleaning up the Chernobyl mess. BBC News.
Retrieved from http://www.bbc.co.uk/science/123BD33
2. SUMMARY OF THE SOURCE
In about100 words, summarize the main points of your source.
This article discusses the main effects of the Chernobyl nuclear explosion that
happened in Ukraine in 1986. It firstly explains the main cause of the disaster,
human error, and then discusses the main effects both in the local area and in
Europe as a whole. It gives statistics on the number of people who became ill
with cancer over the following 20 years and it describes how farming in Europe
was severely affected for several years. It concludes with the methods used to try
and clean up the radioactivity that had fallen in Europe.
3. EVALUATION:
In about 100 words, explain why you chose this source for your report.
Relevance: connect relevant parts of the source with your outline.
Article: what level is it? How up-to-date is the information?
Publication / website / author: are they reputable, unbiased and knowledgeable?
I chose this article because it is all relevant to the main parts of my report. It
Contains information about the type of nuclear plant, which fits in my Background
Section and it has some brief information about the reasons for the explosion,
which belongs in the Causes section of my report. Most of the article, however, is
concerned with my main idea, which is the effects of the explosion and the problem
of cleaning up.
The BBC is a reliable website and the level of the article is aimed at the average
reader. The article is quite new, about six months old, so it has the latest information
about the disaster. I googled the author, Agnes Day, and she has been the BBC’s
science editor for the past 15 years so is knowledgeable on this subject.

,
The foremost reason why KFUPM students should obtain part-time jobs is to increase job
opportunities. Part-time jobs help students form realistic conceptions of the work environment. This
gives them a better understanding of the nature of work and renders them preferable workers due to
their awareness and competence. According to Maverick (2015), eight out of ten business owners favor
applicants with former work experience, regardless of the field. This means that students who have
taken part-time jobs are more competent in the market field than those who have not, as a result, they
are considered as high in demand, which means they have better odds of having an occupation right
after graduation. Also, part-time jobs can lead to networking opportunities which can help students
when they are looking for a full-time job. Johnson (2016) states that part-time jobs expand connections,
which leads to increased job chances. This means that part-time jobs can provide students with better
chances of acquiring prominent and distinguished positions. So, having part-time jobs can prepare
students mentally and help them build up their connections which brings about more life opportunities.

Term Report
Sources
Finding your sources
You must use four to five sources to write your term report. Your choice of sources is very important.
Choosing ‘good’ sources makes it easier to write your report. Choosing bad sources makes it difficult.
Some sources are likely to be unsuitable. Avoid academic journals. They are usually too difficult. Avoid
blogs or ‘open’ sources. Contributors may not be experts. Good sources are encyclopedias for basic
background information, reputable websites, magazines like Popular Science and The Economist and
general-interest magazines such as Time and Newsweek. Quality newspapers such as the Arab News and
Saudi Gazette are also very good sources.
Your teacher may set particular guidelines for the sources you find. For example, he may expect
sources to be fairly new (published within, say, the last one or two years); he may expect sources to
adhere to a minimum and maximum length (e.g., between one and five pages long, he will expect you to
use reputable websites and read online sources whose authors have a relevant background; he may
forbid certain websites, such as Wikipedia. Following your teacher’s guidelines will affect your report
grade so be sure you fully understand them before you begin your research.
Find your sources through the Internet by entering specific search terms into a search engine such as
Google. Your teacher will give you some basic classroom instruction in research methodology,
particularly in the choice of effective search terms.
Evaluating your sources
Whenever you find a potential source, you must first evaluate it before you can start using it to write
your report. Using effective search terms will increase your chances of finding relevant sources but many
of the sources you find which look useful at first glance may turn out to be irrelevant after you have read
them critically. The following points set out the criteria that will help you evaluate your sources.
1. Is the source relevant?
Your chances of finding relevant sources will increase if you use more specific search terms. For example,
using “Three Gorges Dam environmental impacts” is likely to yield more relevant sources than simply
using “Three Gorges Dam. In order to write your source evaluation later, you will also need to be able to
connect specific information in the source with the corresponding topics in your evolving plan. If you
can’t, your source will not be relevant.
2 | P a g e
2. Is the source written at an appropriate level?
Your search may turn up some sources that are too difficult to understand and others that are too
simple. Choose your sources carefully: if you cannot understand them, you cannot use them.
3. Is the article biased?
A biased article is written from one particular point of view and so does not give a balanced or objective
account of an issue. If you detect bias in an article, you may still be able to use the information in your
report but introduce such ideas as opinion rather than fact: for example, “the environmental group
claims that … .”
4. Is the author competent?
An author could be one or more individuals, a government department, an organization, an online action
group, and so on. Often, online sources and even certain reputable magazines like The Economist publish
anonymous articles. As a general rule, it is always better to use reputable sources with named authors.
Presenting a source evaluation
You must use four sources to write your term report and you must present a source evaluation for ONE
of them as the final minute of your oral presentation.
• Source evaluation
Where did you find the article?
How old is the article?
What is the audience for the article?
Is the Author qualified?
Is there any bias?
