The
process of analyzing various sources enables you to exercise critical thinking
and to effectively synthesize information. For this assignment, you will answer
each prompt below with information from five Student Support or Retention based
articles that discuss elements of diversity, inclusion or the campus
environment from sources within the categories listed. Please note that the
article must originate from an
organization within each category, not reference each category (i.e. a
retention article published by a
corporation, not an article about
corporate retention). For each source,
you will analyze each required aspect in depth as you answer each prompt. Your analysis
must be written in your own words, with
citations properly formatted in current APA format. There is no length
requirement; however a strong analysis will include several paragraphs in
applicable fields. Please note that title, abstract and reference pages are not
required; however appropriate current APA citations are required for all
sourced information used.
