  3. Frustration is part of the process. I have so much information …but where do I begin? I feel lost!

  4. What to Mark in Source Material To begin taking notes, use a pencil/pen to underline or write on the materials printed from books, library databases and websites. Pay attention to: • information that supports the thesis, • titles and names, • interpretations by experts in the field, • quotable passages, and • passages that just seem important.

  5. I think I need to do some writing. Now I understand how to begin! I should look for information that is connected to my thesis.

  6. How to Take Notes on Source Material • Highlight or write on the source material. • Create a reading response journal. • Free write some of her` thoughts. • Create note cards of important passages. • Make/Revise an outline.

  7. Review notes. Now that I’ve taken notes, I understand the critics’ ideas about symbolism better. But how do I take the material from my notes and put it into the paper?

  8. How to Use Source Material In-text

  9. Pat is ready to create works cited. But I’d better review MLA format for citations and Works Cited. I have lots of good source material to use. I have a lot of questions about MLA format..
