Beginning Research Tutorial

A tutorial on how to research information sources for assignments.

Evidence

What evidence does the author/creator provide to support their claims?

  • Are there footnotes, endnotes, or citations to other publications?
  • Can you locate sources of information or data?
  • Can you replicate the methods the author used?
  • Do the author's claims derive logically from the evidence presented?
