In the popular magazine that I found it talked about Alex Rodriguez and his usage of anabolic steroids while he was playing baseball. In the scholarly journal that I found it was about steroid use in athletes. It didnt talk about a certain person who used steroids. It talked about who might use steroids, statistics of who used them, effects of usage of steroids, complications that steroids can cause, etc. The main difference between the two is the way that the were writen. The magazine was mainly like an interview saying what one person said and then what the other person said. The scholarly journal was like a book. It had different subheadings for different things about the main topic.

Hi Lindsay,
ReplyDeleteThank you for your post about the scholarly journal and popular magazine articles.
Please go back and use the evaluation criteria we discussed in class to write about these articles. Also, why would the scholarly journal article be organized in the way that it is?
I look forward to your response.
Sincerely,
Professor Wexelbaum
