      1. Optional Point #1

      • Note the citation here - it is APA style.  The author's last name and the date of the article/book.  Then at the end, you would have a list of references in APA style that would include the name of the article/book - like what most of you did for your biography project.
2. Level 2: Sources After 2010. Choose 5 of the 8 new articles I provided, or search the web for others. Any combination is also fine. In the bubbles below, record the main idea of each.
   1. EXAMPLE: The Adams (2013) says, blah blah blah....
3. Level 1: At least three connections go in bubbles on this level. What have you found to remain the same throughout both time periods (before 2010 and after 2010) concerning girls' and boys' ed? Write these connections in boxes/bubbles on this level.

   Annotations:

   • Here is where you show evidence of your thinking. Connect the pieces about boys and girls' education that you have found to be the same in sources before 2010 (which we read for the discussions) and in sources you found dated after 2010.
   1. Connection #2.. blah blah blah
   2. Connection #3 blah blah bla...
   3. Connection #1 blah blah blah
   4. EXAMPLE: Both Mead (2008) and Adams (2013) agree that blah blah blah....
4. Level 3: What differences in the updated information did you find? Compare articles dated after 2010 to those dated before 2010. Record at least three.
   1. EXAMPLE: Mead (2008) said blah blah blah; however, Adams (2013) says blah blah blah...
   5. Level 4: Look at sources dated after 2010 that your group found for this week's discussion posts. On this level, show at least two likenesses (to the right) and two differences(to the left) you found as you studied these and ANY other works we have studied in the course. Cite your findings.
      1. EXAMPLE: We found an article entitled, "Blah Blah" (2014) It highlighted three points very similarly to Greene (1978) and Bowles (1976)
         1. Point #1 blah blah
         2. #2 blah blah
         3. #3 blah bla
      2. Differences
         1. Differences
      3. Likenesses....
      4. Level 5: What conclusion(s) have you drawn about girls and boys' education as a result of synthesizing all you have read for this assignment?
         1. Idea 1 blah blah

            • http://www.hereiswhereifound.com.  A notation needs to be on each of your bubbles in this area - support what you believe!  For example, you could refer to something in "Savage Inequalities", in which case you would write: (Kozol, 1991)
         2. Idea 2
            1. blah blah
            2. la la la
