Part 1: Selecting Sources: Whom Can You Trust?
One of the major traps that students fall into when writing a research paper is trusting an untrustworthy
source. This could be a book that simply has its facts wrong, a periodical article that is biased for or against
its subject, a website that seems objective but has a hidden agenda, or a newspaper story whose author
has a known penchant for distorting the truth. Whenever you’re evaluting a source, consider all of the fol-
lowing criteria:
* Comprehensibility
* Timeliness
* Reputation of the author
* Reputation of the periodical or the book publisher
* Apparent bias
* Nature of the work
* What others say
Part 2: The Perils of Plagiarism
Remember, your research paper must present an original approach to the topic — in other words, you must
come up with your own way of looking at the topic rather than simply echoing a point of view that you
found somewhere else. And you must cite sources in a scholarly fashion, which means following standard
rules and procedures to explain where you found the facts and ideas you are borrowing.
