Finding Sources Tell your partner: What sources do you think would be best to use to try to answer your research questions?

Sources Books! (This should be your first stop.) – Including reference books, almanacs, etc. Student Resource Center World Book Online Reliable Web sites

How do you know if a website is reliable?

Some things to keep in mind… Visual Appearance– Sites that appear more modern (and with less ads) may be more reliable. Author Credibility– Is there information about the author presented? Prior Knowledge– Does the information make sense with what you already know? Organization’s Credibility– Is this website connected with a TV show, book, school, etc? Does the address end in.net or.org or.gov? Ease of Editing – Can this site be edited by anyone or only experts?

Let’s look at some examples What does NKVD stand for? Source 1 Source 2 Source 3

More examples Analyze the print outs from websites. Decide if you believe the source would be a good one to use or not. Explain why or why not.

Now that you know what sources to use…. What type of information should you be seeking?

DEFINITION: Something that actually happened or that can be proved. A fact can be checked with a reference. CLUES: Numbers Dates Percentages EXAMPLE: Golf was invented in Scotland in 1350 and played by the royal family. RESOURCES: almanac atlas biographical dictionary dictionary encyclopedia reliable Web sites

DEFINITION: A person’s belief or judgment and cannot be proved. CLUES: I believenever In my opinionmust alwaysworst bestall emotional statements EXAMPLE: Wool is the best material to use if you are going to make a sweater. RESOURCES: Cannot be verified.

Fact or Opinion? If the statement is a fact, indicate what source you would use to verify it. 1. David Kunst was the first person to walk around the world. 2. Nantucket Island is the best summer vacation spot. 3. Aluminum is used in place of steel in different automobile parts. 4. There will always be more registered Democrats than Republicans.

Practice Read the review of Toy Story. (DO NOT WRITE ON IT!) Identify two facts and how you could verify them. Identify one opinion and what clue led you to believe the statement is not fact. Note: the fact or opinion does not have to be an entire sentence. It can just be part of a sentence.
