How reputable do you think the source is—who are they?  

Question

Digital Source Paper Most of us now access the majority of our news and other information in online formats.  Podcasts and videos online are increasingly common. Many of these digital sources present information in new and exciting ways and can be accessed easily on the internet. The goal of this assignment is for you for you to explore these resources in the context of A&P, learn about something new and interesting, and potentially find a source of information that you will keep returning to in the future. You may already have a favorite podcast or have watched an inspiring TED Talk.  There are a number of additional suggested podcasts and video sources that give new insights or different perspectives on A&P topics in the list at the end of this description. To complete the assignment, you will choose an online video or podcast.  Make sure it covers a topic that is related to A&P, interests you, and that provides enough information to write a paper about.  (If it is a very short video or podcast, it probably is not enough information.)  You can use one of the sources from the list below or find one on your own. Watch/listen to the digital video or podcast.  Make sure to take notes while you watch or listen. Write a paper that both summarizes the information presented and reflects on the topics presented and the quality of the presentation and the source in the following format: The body of the digital source paper, not including the title page should be at least two pages long.

After completing your paper, revise and make sure your final paper utilizes language, grammar, and spelling appropriate to a college class. Get help from the Writing Studio if you need it. Your paper should include:Digital Source Paper Title page.
