As discussed, research is only useful if it connects to primary text. In this case, the primary texts that we wish to discover are "A Problem" by Anton Chekhov and "There Will Come Soft Rains" by Ray Bradbury. Today, we will use a .edu on the internet and an article in the Cengage library in our media center. Follow the steps below.
1. Chekhov- go to Google on the internet, enter Anton Chekhov into a search and select the option of biography that is a .edu. Find the useful part of this source and scan it for information that connects to "A Problem" : any information that could have inspired Chekhov to write the short story or any concern in the story that was a part of his life. Then, write that information into a paragraph that not only uses in text citation but has work cited information after it.
2. Bradbury- go to the school's website, access Academics, Library Media Center, Literature Resource Center. Proceed and select a title search; be sure to include the Bradbury in the box under the title of the work "There Will Come Soft Rains". In the article that you find, follow the steps that you completed in #1(above).
***The paragraphs that you are writing and documenting should be written on actual paper; you will add this to the essay that you will hand in today. So, everyone must have their own distinct paragraphs to hand in with their essays on The Good and Evil in Bradbury and Chekhov
