Effective Research

Resources

•  Discussion and Participation Scoring Guide.

When conducting research, it is important to determine which sources of information to use. Though many sources may seem relevant on the surface, as you dig into the information from the source, you may find there is no relevance to your topic. Think about ways you can make your research most effective, select two, and provide justification for the strategies you propose.

The information provided in this week's readings will help you get started on this discussion.

Read the Discussion Participation Scoring Guide prior to posting to learn how the instructor will evaluate your discussion participation.

Response Guidelines

Read the posts of your peers and respond to two. In each response, compare the research strategies you identified with those of your peer. After evaluating all the strategies identified by you and your peer, note which you believe would be the most effective, and provide an explanation for your choice.
