IBlearner73 Posted February 13, 2018 Report Share Posted February 13, 2018 Hi guys, I was wondering if having only articles as source materials is fine? Will they penalize you if you don't have a variety of text types as your source texts? Thanks Reply Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
IB_taking_over Posted February 13, 2018 Report Share Posted February 13, 2018 For SL at my high school, people used 3 sources online articles. I think they all have to come from different news organizations, though. For HL we used a book that we had read in class. Reply Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
astonky Posted February 13, 2018 Report Share Posted February 13, 2018 I guess it depends on the topic, though examiners do like to see a variety of sources e.g. online newspaper, online magazine, video, movie etc. So if you can find relevant soirces in a different format that could help your grade. Else you need to ensure that you demonstrate variety through the style and range of opinions in your articles. Reply Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
