Speech - COMM101 - Kinebrew-Bosa

How do you evaluate sources?

How do you know a source is appropriate for a speech at the college level? Using skills you already have, think about the following questions:

1. How can you tell if an information source is AUTHORITATIVE?
2. How do you know that the information on a website is ACCURATE?
3. Where can you find out the PURPOSE of a website?
4. How do you determine if an information source is RELEVANT to your needs?
5. What is a good website YOU have used for research? (not necessarily for this assignment) (Also, not Google!)

What did you learn from your classmates? How will this help you do research for this class?
