Today I have continued to work on my annotated bibliography:
Source 2
GreatSchools Staff. ?Why Learn a Second Language?? GreatSchools. GreatSchools Inc. Web. 7 December 2012. < http://www.greatschools.org/students/academic-skills/540-learn-second-language.gs?page=all >.
Main Idea:
The main idea of this source is to draw attention to the need of learning a second language in the United States. This source speaks to the common benefits of learning a second language and the changes in the education system in terms of world languages. The sub-claims in this piece is that there are several resources for learning a second language and that, ?I took French in school, but I can?t speak it? is, ?no loner an acceptable response?(Source 2). This source talks about the several benefits of learning a second language and how anyone can benefit from this type of knowledge. It presents the idea of taking advantage of the opportunities available to people to learn a second language, saying that there are even easily accessible online resources for learning a second language.
Argument Analysis:
I believe that this is a reliable source, because although it does not formally cite any outside sources or provide a bibliography on where their information came from, this source does reference a few credibly sources such as the College Board. Though this source is from an educational website, I do think that it is in some ways objective, because the article was written by the general GreatSchools Staff, not by a specific committee or group focusing on world language education. They also increase their credibility by providing quotes and some references to support their claims. I believe that the author is qualified, because it is an educational organization arguing in favor of expanding students? education for their future benefit. I think that this source is well informed, but somewhat popular. It takes a more casual tone and would be more likely to persuade parents or open-minded teachers to side with their views on the subject.
Reflection:
I think that the information provided in this source fits in well with my information, because provides a lot of information that would be persuasive to the everyday person, such as parents, teachers, or other interested parties. Although this source is general in some areas, I think that it is easy to understand and that when combined with more scholarly sources, will provide information that can be persuasive and well understood by a larger audience.
