Career is paramedic You’re going to need to find your own original source material — you are required to synthesize two outside sources, found by you, that help defend your position. This will require outside research on your part: You will use material you’ve discovered independently, without my direct intervention. Restricted Source Material: You are forbidden from just using reference material (dictionaries, encyclopedias, Wikipedia, Ask.com, or other reference sites). You are forbidden from using personal interviews. Any web sites used must meet the standards of academic rigor, meaning that a scholar would approve of the use of the site. We will discuss how to evaluate source material in class. Use of forbidden sources will result in an automatic “F” on the assignment.
Guidelines
Students may use the following: articles from a Valencia database, books from the library, blogs from noted professionals in the field, professional web sites, reputable organizational web sites, academic web sites, government web sites, and professional journals.
