Sources of information ,[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object]
Check your research sources and ask: Is the information authentic? Who is the author? Are there names and contact details? If you have to use Wikipedia, these are at the bottom of each page, often with live links to the original Does the author / s have  academic credentials, or is associated with an organisation? Who owns and contributes to the website? Check the URL- think of the bias Greenpeace or the CIA  may  have!  Is there a bibliography / list of sources to back up this work? Are the views, information and opinions balanced or just one person’s biased viewpoint?  Is the information old and possibly out of date? – abandoned websites  stay around a long time! 
The Research Wall-beyond Google and Wikipedia  Local Authority  websites  GIS systems- simple free ones Textbooks Multimedia - DVDs, podcasts…. even U-tube Journals and Magazine articles-  not just Geographical ones!  Geographical magazines, Geofact sheets, Geofiles. Many of these are in an electronic form Internet   e.g. ATHENS- your centre may buy into shared resource systems like Athens system,  where subscription information e.g. New Scientist ,The Economist., daily newspapers and the sophisticated GALE data base is available.. Professional geographical organisations  e.g .RGS, The Geographical Association may have useful sources. See also specialist sites for options e.g. WHO for health, UNESCO for culture…… Internet Search Engines Use keywords and phrases- add as much as you can to narrow the search, and put in quote marks /+ symbols between words to refine search. Most famous =  www.google.co.uk/ Internet Gateways-  good for researching issues  e.g. INTUTE for Arts and Humanities http://www.humbul.ac.uk/ http ://www.vts.intute.ac.uk/he/tutorial/geographer http ://bubl.ac.uk/ ,[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object]

  • 8. Check your research sources and ask: Is the information authentic? Who is the author? Are there names and contact details? If you have to use Wikipedia, these are at the bottom of each page, often with live links to the original Does the author / s have academic credentials, or is associated with an organisation? Who owns and contributes to the website? Check the URL- think of the bias Greenpeace or the CIA may have! Is there a bibliography / list of sources to back up this work? Are the views, information and opinions balanced or just one person’s biased viewpoint? Is the information old and possibly out of date? – abandoned websites stay around a long time!
