About consulting & citing book chapters

  • This course topics are drawn from broad themes which tend to be covered in scholarly books (anthologies or edited essay collections).
  • In contrast, journal articles tend to have a much more specialized or specific focus.
  • Each book chapter can often be read as a standalone topic (not always necessary to read the entire book). 
  • Skim the introduction. It typically describes the book's focus and scope and may define how terms are used in its chapters.
  • Some of the encyclopedias on the Reference Sources" page of this guide will also have substantial entries about particular educational theories and philosophies and may be appropriate to consult, incorporate and cite in your assignment.
