2.2 Evaluating Information Sources
WELCOME to your MCNY research tutorials! Here, you will be asked to engage with resources and tools and answer questions to help facilitate your understanding of advanced research.
Once you’ve found results for your research that look interesting, you need to evaluate them. You can get information from many sources, but that does not mean that the information is accurate or reliable. To help you make this decision, ask yourself the following questions:
Who, what, when, where, why, and how?
In this series of videos you will be introduced to each of these questions and given some questions to answer. By the end of this tutorial, you will have all of the tools you need to begin evaluating sources.
