Evaluate Resources Too much information? Divide and conquer your needs assessment. We will help you navigate statistics on sites to find the accurate information.

The Affordable Care Act (ACA), enacted March 23, 2010, added new requirements that hospital organizations must satisfy in order to be described in section 501(c)(3), as well as new reporting and excise taxes.

EVALUATING RESOURCES Demonstrate the ability to evaluate resources, particularly online resources, for accuracy, authority, objectivity, currency, and coverage 2

Resources 1.Accuracy 2.Authority 3.Objectivity 4.Currency 5.Coverage Evaluation of Resources:

Accuracy Where did the data come from? – “Methods” or “Sources” section Is it consistent with other resources (if any)? Are terms and measures defined? – Compare apples to apples

Accuracy: example

Authority Sources—whose information? – Primary data source or aggregator of others’ data? Editor lists, editorial statements – Methodology disclosure helps boost confidence here too For research articles, case studies etc.: – Peer review – Author affiliation statements

Authority: example

Objectivity Everybody has an angle—what is it? Can you distinguish between regular and sponsored content?

Currency How recent is your data? May be impossible to get very recent data (less than 2-3 years) – Collection, compilation, etc. can take a long time Some resources present data from a mix of dates—check details, FAQ’s If historical data is available, look for trends

Currency: example

Coverage Geographical coverage: – Extent (does it cover the area in question) – Granularity (in small enough chunks: state, county, etc.) Subject coverage: – Extent (covers the topic in question) – Granularity (divisions between groups: percentages, quartiles, arbitrary groups)

Coverage: example

It’s not just about data, but quality data strengthening YOUR IDEA.
