So much information is given and relayed back and forth. for me on several occasions the introduction of scholarly information has been offered me. It does seem to be helpful at least to be reaffirmed the information that is available at a whim. Where usually the feeling of educational enrichment seems like a far reached grasp, the academic journals we can access through the school libraries allows the distinction to be made between pseudo-science and peer-reviewed and filtered sciences. the meaning makes me feel whole. Not anything but human what we are supposed to be on the level of thoughtful and fully competent of extra-high powered contemplation and ponderance. Ingenuity.

In the library orientation that we had there was a lot of information given some of it was clear but some wasn't that clear. I also saw this orientation already at another college. Overall the information was useful again and learned more on where the databases are and how to search for a book.

Short Reflection:Research

In college, it is always important to use as much research as possible when writing an assignment. Research is the foundation of substantial information regarding facts towards any subject. Providing research information makes the paper more profound. Also it moves the paper in a powerful direction. The difference between scholarly and popular documents is that scholarly documents are written by legit authors, educated scholars or experts, whereas, popular documents are mostly unsigned and are written by journalist or staff. Scholarly documents is the best way to go; they contain genuine bibliography and references. On the other hand, popular does not contain bibliography nor reference. Having good research can lead to a well written paper with cited sources.

I found this library orientation to be very useful. I learned better ways to find sources, how to choose them and how you distinguish which source you use. There is a difference between scholarly reviews and popular reviews. Scholarly reviews are written by experts and are reviewed by other experts. One way to distinguish them are by looking for credentials, or if they have a short biography, footnotes, or a source and the length of their writing is definitely a big factor. Popular reviews are usually found in magazines, newspapers, or online articles. I would say scholarly articles is a more sufficient way to go.
