Find five Web sites that discuss Kuhn’s concept of the paradigm. At least ONE of the sites should be critical of the concept. All web sites should be found by you and should not be those already listed on the course syllabus.
Web sites should supplement or directly relate to the unit in question. Avoid unreliable sites like wikipedia.com( which is not acceptable for it is a “pop site).
You should give full web site citations not just a short cut. DO NOT SEND WEB SITES WITHOUT THE ANNOTATIONS.
You must provide annotations for each new web site and they should be 6 to 8 sentences long (not just a sentence or two). They must summarize the contents of the site, your reaction to it (useful or non-useful, reliable or not reliable) and your evaluation of its relationship to the course content you learn in readings. Also provide some background about the site. What is the title of the site? Who is the author (if you can determine it)? What is their objective? Is it an academic site? Is it credible? Is it one person’s opinion?
Use APA citation format.
