Educational Leadership

Most of the time, your professor will recommend that you cite peer-reviewed journal articles in your papers and assignments.  

Peer-reviewed journals are a type of scholarly publication.  Experts have reviewed the individual articles in the journal before publication, so they have greater credibility than a popular publication.  Watch the following video to find out how to identify a scholarly publication. 

• Popular vs. Scholarly Publications

A research study is a type of peer-reviewed journal article. See the PowerPoint, "What is a research study?" on this page for more information. 

To access these and many other single journals, search for the title in Eagle Search.  Each journal record will indicate if the journal is peer-reviewed, if that is a requirement of your paper or assignment.
