To help and prepare us for our annotated bibliography exercise that we got given in class today, we did an exercise on how to find adequate resources to use as evidence and back up arguments. We were instructed to use sites such as Google Scholar and the RMIT Library Search to find resources about Jamie Oliver.
These were the three questions:
- Where will you search?
Google scholar
RMIT learning hub
- What sources?
Books, articles, journal articles
- Compare the content of the sources
Class and authenticity – roots, identity
Jamie Oliver is an everyman – family, children, cooks a lot with family and his children are often in his programs and ads.
Nigella v Jamie – their different approaches and qualities, Jamie healthy whereas Nigella baking
Social issues:
- Child obesity
- School eating habits
- Sugar tax
- School dinners at canteen
This was a great way to get us familiar on the types of sources we will need for our bibliographies and future research in general as we progress through the course.
