CMPE 185


What is a survey article
What is a Survey Article?

  • A survey article is a collection of perspectives on a specific subject.

  • May also be thought of as a background essay.


Goals for this project
Goals for this project

  • To practice in-depth library research on a specific subject.

  • May be used as part of your Final Project, as background or overview.


Choosing a topic
Choosing a topic

  • Recommended: Pick something you’re familiar with.

  • If you choose to cover something you’ve already investigated in a previous project, choose a small aspect of that project.

  • Create a topic statement.


Target audience
Target Audience

  • Your audience has some knowledge of what you’re discussing, but they aren’t experts.

  • You can assume the audience knows roughly as much about the subject matter as you did – before you researched the matter in depth.


Resources
Resources

  • You must cite at least FOUR sources.

    • At least THREE of these must be from printed sources.

    • You may use only ONE source that’s only available online.

    • (If you have access to an online source of an article that is physically printed elsewhere, this is acceptable as a printed source.)

    • You must cite all four sources.

  • Library search

    • Build subject-heading and keyword searches around your topic statement.

    • When you find relevant articles or books, see what those authors cite as references.


More resources
More resources

  • Article Databases (which you should now have experience with) are particularly useful.

    • Pick 3-5 articles to start with.

    • Don’t just pick the first three you find. Choose the most relevant.

  • Be sure to note all citation information.

    • Emailing yourself/photocopying citation information will save you time.

    • Talk to your friendly neighborhood Reference Librarian.


Organize your information
Organize your Information

  • Decide what your main points are.

  • Locate key information from the texts.

  • Present the clearest explanations possible for each topic and subtopic.

  • Keep an eye out for contradictory information.

    • Remember, your job is to present opinions and information, not to judge them.

    • Treat each source fairly.

Starting facts

    • While inflation was limited under Elizabeth I (reigned 1558-1603), English currency lost value under James I (reigned 1603-1625).

      • Source: James Mackey, A Monetary History of England p. 143



  • Price comparisons: different classes, including sailors, artisans, merchants, apprentices, and visiting tourists.

    • “A penny was the cost of a beer or a cheap meal, and only a third the price of a pipe full of tobacco.”

    • “The industrious artisan earned about 6 shillings a week”

      • Andrew Gurr, The Shakespearean Stage p. 199
