Select one of the sources you have found through your preliminary

reader) interested.
In order to foster learning and growth, all essays you submit must be newly written specifically for this course.
Any recycled work will be sent back with a 0, and you will be given one attempt to redo the touchstone.
The introduction of this paper will involve introducing the source: Provide the author, the title, and the context
(where you found the source, where it was originally published, who sponsored it, etc.)
You will then go on to evaluate the source on two levels:
Credibility: Using the information in this unit as a guide, evaluate the source’s authenticity and reliability. Look
at all the information that you can find about the source to establish the author’s (or sponsor’s) trustworthiness.
Usefulness: Using a combination of summary and analysis, examine the source on a critical level. Determine
what the source’s purpose (thesis) is, and how it arrives at that goal. Examine its value to you and the project
you are working on. How will it help you prove your own points? How might it come in handy to back up a claim
(or address a counter-claim)?
Finally, you will include a conclusion which shows your final assessments on both counts. Use this
