Locating Supporting Material Supporting materials include: Facts, Statistics, Opinions, Stories, and Testimonies. Primary Research: original or firsthand research (interviews and surveys) Secondary Research: the focus includes information produced by others. * Secondary research can be found in books , newspapers, periodicals, government publications, blogs, and reference works (encyclopedias, almanacs, books of quotation, and atlases)

Secondary Sources Books: ~Explore topics in depth ~Provides detail and perspective ~Gives supporting examples, stories, facts, and statistics ~You can find websites to find all of the published books in the United States Newspapers: ~Give detailed background or historic information ~Several websites are available to find credible newspaper information Periodical: ~It is a regularly published magazine or journal ~They include all types of supporting material, so it is an excellent source Government Publications ~Nearly all the information contained in government documents comes from primary sources, which means that it is highly credible ~There is also a website that you can look up to find credible Government information

Reference Works Encyclopedias, almanacs, biographical resources, books of quotations, poetry collections, and atlases. Encyclopedias: summarize knowledge located in original form in another location Provide general overview of subjects Almanacs and fact books: contain facts and statistics on many subject areas Published annually Biographical resources: contain information about famous or noteworthy people. Books of quotations: contain passages, phrases, and proverbs traced to their sources.

Reference Works (continued) -Poetry Collections: Poems are often used in introductions, conclusions and they help illustrate points in the speech body. -Atlases: A collection of maps, text, and accompanying charts and tables.

Reference Works (continued) Weblogs and social news sites Blog: a site maintained by individuals or groups containing journal like entries Social news site: allows users to submit news stories, articles, and videos to share with others users of the site. Use these sources with cautions because they aren’t always reputable

Critically Evaluate Sources No matter the source, consider the following: What is the author’s background in this field of study? How credible is the publication? How reliable is the information? How recent is the reference. Working bibliography: keeping track of your sources as you go along
