[SOLVED] Finding and Evaluating Sources
Institutional affiliationFinding and evaluating sourcesFinding sources to be used during research is important in formulating appropriate research and evaluating it will determine whether it fits with the right criteria. Evaluating sources will help one to determine whether the information is accurate and credible. During this study, I have learned several things about finding sources of research. (Nadelson, L. (2021). When choosing a source, one has to work with something interesting to them since it will be easier to find ideas for something that one is conversant with. Sources should be from academic journals to make it easier for referencing and future studies. The language used in a chosen source should be easy to understand and free from hard words and vocabulary. The content in the chosen source should be just enough to provide all answers needed in the research and not too long to make one tired of researching on it.Both primary and secondary sources can be used during research to make ones work easier. Primary sources can come from other documents from the past or other research articles while secondary sources are obtained from analyzing and working on the primary sources to get more useful information. (Logsdon, A. (2019). The research topic to be worked on determines whether both secondary and primary sources are needed for the research. Other sources may include print media sources like books that are nonfiction, periodicals, and reference works.These sources can be used as starting points to steer one in the right direction while doing the research. Internet sources are also available and one gets all the information they need online. The sources chosen should be timely and have information that conforms with the current trends and latest information but when doing historical research, ancient sources have to be consulted to obtain accurate information. My research is going on well and I have not encountered any challenges so far because I chose research that I am well conversant with and is easy to do.

Surreal Story
The artists and writers of the surrealist movement were creating their work as a direct response to the traumatic events of the world around them. I think the question of “How could artists and novelists create anything meaningful in a world so bitter and damaged?” is quite fitting for the current state of the world. By also embracing the worlds chaos and irrationality, let’s pretend like surrealism is our only answer in recovering from the traumatic events that wreak havoc on our world. Your short story can be a reaction to an event (the pandemic, police brutality, just to list a few examples) in the world or it can be a reaction to a personal traumatic event (like Leonora Carrington which is uploaded as a pdf below).Also: Please study the link I have provided below before writing:

Grammar Errors
Provide your final draft here for your second short fiction essay. It should be in MLA format and should contain at least 1,000 words. It should be edited thoroughly and should conform to the assignment parameters that I have laid out in previous assignments. Look at the essay example I provided in the previous module and be sure that your final draft looks just like it, same font and size (Times New Roman, 12), skipped lines, Works Cited page, header, heading, etc. Be sure that you use or convert to .doc or .docx saved file format so that I can download it into Canvas Speed Grader. I will be giving detailed feedback with comments on the essay itself and a final comment at the end that will address overall content, grammar, and MLA format in that order. I added a guide to reading your feedback. Use it to make sure you have checked all of your feedback. Be sure to edit carefully for careless errors, grammar errors (especially major errors, like run-on sentences, fragments, subject verb agreement, pronoun confusion etc.), clarity, etc. Be sure that you have a narrowed topic and controlling idea in your thesis and that it is provided at the end of your introductory paragraph and that your thesis is mentioned throughout your entire essay and that it is referenced after all of your quotes so that you have coherence. Read over your essay carefully one final time before you upload it in addition to your careful editing and proofreading to be sure to catch all of those little mistakes that sneak through. I always end up finding one or two careless errors or a few places where I can add some extra information for the sake of clarity when I do this even though I edit and proofread carefully while writing and afterwards.
