This assignment requires you to locate scholarly sources. Some directions suggest limiting your search to peer reviewed journals. Keep in mind that limiting to peer reviewed journals may make your research more challenging.

​​​​​​Is there a difference between peer reviewed articles and scholarly articles?

• Peer reviewed articles are simply a subset of scholarly (academic) articles; they are extremely evidence-based focused, topic-specific, and narrow.
• Sources do not have to be peer reviewed in order to be academic/scholarly/credible.
