Follow the guidelines below to ensure you receive full credit for your notetaking research:

1. Make sure each new source is properly cited in MLA format using Easybib 2. Each source and the notes from that source must be color coordinated--see example here 3. Each note should have a number associated with it--placed in parenthesis at the end of your 'note' -- the note corresponds to which question it answers 4. You must have AT LEAST 5 valid points for each question (meaning 5 research notes/research question) 5. All sources must be be reliable sources (understand that if you have an unreliable source, you will have to delete those notes and start again) 6. ALL NOTES MUST BE WRITTEN IN YOUR OWN WORDS--DO NOT COPY AND PASTE!

Finding reliable information for case study research:

You can, however, use Wikipedia to do some background research and give you key words to search related to your questions. You can also look at the sources listed on Wikipedia--most of them are reliable. If the site looks like it's someone's individual page and opinions, stay away. Does the site look professional? If it doesn't look professional, the information has probably not been researched in a professional manner. **4. Don't just go to the top searches on Google!** Just because it's the first link to appear does not mean that it is the most reliable. I am happy to look at any site for you and tell you whether it appears to be reliable or not. Don't take notes and then ask questions later--ask questions NOW!
 * 1. You may not use Wikipedia as a source! **
 * 2. Look to see if the site is published/maintained by an individual or a company. **
 * 3. Professional appearance **
 * 5. If you're not sure, ASK! **
