Begin with the wide, then move on to the details. Since analysis is a huge undertaking, it can be daunting to know where to begin—nothing there's wrong with a quick internet search to get you started. Although not always reliable, online tools such as Google and Wikipedia are a fantastic way to get a general overview of a subject, including a brief history and some key points.]]> 2021-04-02 17:50:01 UTC https://padlet.com/36010431/Bookmarks/wish/1378497258 3601052 https://padlet.com/36010431/Bookmarks/wish/1378505292
Learn how to spot a reliable source. Since not every source is trustworthy, it is vital that you are able to differentiate between the good and poor sources. To find a credible source, use your logical and logical reasoning skills and ask yourself the following questions: Is this source compatible with other sources I've discovered? Is the speaker a subject matter expert? Is the author. Check the authenticity of the information from various sources. The internet is a huge space where, for the most part, anybody can say anything they want—many websites do not test their content for factual accuracy. This means that there are a lot of untrustworthy resources out there, as well as a lot of outright wrong ones. The only way to overcome this is to guarantee that anything you learn through your study, you follow up with.]]> 2021-04-02 17:54:19 UTC https://padlet.com/36010431/Bookmarks/wish/1378505292 3601052 https://padlet.com/36010431/Bookmarks/wish/1378519004 Be receptive to unexpected responses. Seeking answers to your research questions is the aim of successful science, not simply to reinforce what you already believe you know. Looking for evidence is a somewhat restricting analysis technique because it allows you to pick and select what details to gather and prevents you from developing the most detailed interpretation of the subject.

You'll see a large amount of material, from websites, PDFs, and videos, during the data collection process. It is crucial that you have all this knowledge structured in some way so that you do not forget something or can't cite anything correctly.

Ideas appear out of nowhere. Always keep a notebook and a pen handy while doing research. You might also get ideas from unexpected locations. You could watch the movie or listen to the radio to learn something new.
