I would like to suggest that students use the electronic versions which are easier and quicker, to cut the corner, but then to keep the dinos happy pretend to have read the papyrus version. But that would be dishonest, pity, a JBL article is a JBL article whether on paper or screen. And a JHS article is usually good even if it never touches paper! WShat matters is the quality of the resource, not the medium.Tim Bulkeleyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07289349880110581469noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5759844.post-29369422316708986742007-02-20T07:37:00.000-05:002007-02-20T07:37:00.000-05:00Hi Danny.

I couldn't comment on your specific case, of course, but in general I am happy with the citation of electronic sources, especially if they are (1) properly cited and (2) the best available source for the piece in question. In relation to (2), it is sometimes the case that someone will have used an electronic resource to cut a corner, and I don't like to encourage that.Mark Goodacrehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05115370166754797529noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5759844.post-6545040523962130642007-02-19T18:23:00.000-05:002007-02-19T18:23:00.000-05:00Mark,What do you think about electronic sources vs...Mark,<BR/><BR/>What do you think about electronic sources vs. print sources?<BR/><BR/>I use Accordance heavily and they have many good resources for lexical and grammatical studies, as well as dictionary articles. Whenever I cite them in an essay, inevitably my teacher will put "cite print version". This actually just happened in an essay I am preparing to submit- I got the comment from two people who I asked to read the work.<BR/><BR/>What do you think of this occasion?Danny Zachariashttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09819589295672075138noreply@blogger.com
