Identifying Source Types Activity Instructions

Discuss the Audience, Purpose, and Authors of your source.

Prepare to report back to the group if you think the source is Scholarly / Academic or Popular / Mass Media and why.

Also tell the group in what situation this source could be useful to someone researching the topic.
