Research with Attitude

Conduct your research with the attitude of a skeptic. As you examine websites for clues that they’re trustworthy, ask these questions.

·       Who wrote the Web page? If you can’t identify the individual or origination responsible for the information, don’t use it.

·       What are the author’s qualifications for writing on the subject?

·       Has the article passed through an editorial process designed to ensure quality and accuracy?

·       What is the website’s purpose? Look for motives ----- like selling products or winning votes ---- that could result in based or incomplete information.

·       Is the information accurate? Is it up-to-date?

·       Where did the author get this information?

It’s Online. But Is It On Target?

Part 1

Using the Web Wisely

Thanks to the web, information is easy to find. However, it’s also easy to post something online. Anyone can do it.

You’ve probably use the Internet to do research for a paper, to help you decide which product to buy, or to form an opinion about current events. Looking up information online is fast and convenient. But when you do online research, it’s important to find sites you can trust.

Many websites claim to have the facts, but are full of errors. Others present information in a biased way ----- they only give one side of an argument. How can you tell a reliable source from an unreliable one? Also, it is critical that you post you online only that which is descent and appropriate, never anything pornographic, vulgar, indecent, out of taste, untruthfully, or obscene. Post those things that will make a good name for you and your organization, that will promote goodwill and be of benefit to the world.

Question

As you survey the text, ask a question for each section. Ask what, why, how, when, who and where questions as they relate to the content. Here’s how you can create questions:

·       Turn the title, headings or subheading into questions.

·       Rewrite the questions at the end of the chapter or after each subheading in your own words.

Write down some questions. Questions help you pay attention, understand the text better and recall the information more easily later on.

Read

Read one section of the chapter at a time, actively looking for an answer to your questions for that section. Pay attention to bold and italicized text that authors use to make important points.

Be sure to review everything in the section, including tables, graphs and illustration ----- these features can communicate an idea more powerfully than written text.
