CHS365: Scholarly Journal Abstract Guidelines (5 Points-, Late Papers Docked a Grade) Give yourself enough time to check this in Turnitin.com (Refer to Library Homepage for MLA Format/Library Assistance) (Submit and click “ORIGINALITY SCORE”) Use your discretion; you may need to revise. It is your tool to check; resubmit if needed. The abstract should be approximately two+ pages long, typed, double spaced, .12 font. Use “spellcheck,” etc. and complete sentences. Paraphrase rather than copy word for word and use quotes sparingly. No more than one short quote per page. Some scholarly journal articles have a one paragraph abstract at the beginning that briefly summarizes the article, but your abstract will be longer. You may use this information in your Research Paper. Locate a scholarly journal article about Chicanas or any other women of color in the U.S. or in another country. If the article relates to your Mini-Research paper, you can use it as a source. This assignment will help you figure out how to find a scholarly journal article and the availability of scholarly journal articles on 3rd world women. Confirm that the article is about 3rd world women in the U.S. or in another country. Confirm that it is a scholarly journal by locating a list of references at the end of the article or looking only at peer reviewed journals. Check with me or a librarian if you are unsure. A scholarly journal publishes articles by experts in the field—for example, anthropologists, political scientists, sociologists, psychologists, etc. It usually includes original research on a topic. Read the article and identify the main parts. Use the Sub-headings below so I can see that you addressed each point: Citation information in MLA Form: Type at top of Abstract. For proper form, see handouts from Library session. The Problem: What is the event, issue, person, concept being studied? What is the research question, if the author states it? Briefly describe the significance of the study if the author provides it. Why is it important? The Research Method: How did the author gather information (questionnaires, surveys, observations, historical documents, interviews, official documents, census data or other large data bases? Other? Who and/or How many people were surveyed or interviewed or studied in some way? Describe the Research Method. The Findings: What did the author find out? Summarize the main findings, answer to the question, or conclusions the author provides. Any surprises? Brief Commentary: Relate the article to one of our readings (Enloe, Maria Teresa Tula, Mascia Lees). Does it confirm, contradict, complement by adding information to one of our readings or films? It could relate to a general theme rather than a specific organization or person. Do you have any criticisms of the article in regard to the research methods or findings? Explain in a well developed paragraph—not simply its about women and activism—go into detail and cite the page number and other related reading. **GRADING CRITERIA: 3 POINTS FOR ADDRESSING EACH REQUIREMENT REGARDING CONTENT 2 POINTS FOR ADDRESSING FORM—USING CORRECT MLA FORM AND CHECKING FOR GRAMMAR AND SPELLING!
