Working with Sources

Working effectively with research sources includes being able to navigate, manage, and take notes on sources.

Why Working with Sources Matters

In a College Course

  • You read case studies, theories, industry projections, and much more for your economics class, so you need to capture information efficiently.

  • You combine what you learn from clinic observations with information about your own child’s diagnosis to direct your paper to an audience of parents.

In the Workplace

  • You use company sales data, but you want to develop an annotated list of industry and government sources to expand available statistics.

In Your Community

  • You agree to write a brief history of your campus social group, presenting the old records accurately but not offending potential contributors on alumni day.
