Gathering, Analyzing, and Evaluating Information Research

Student Objective Synthesizing and analyzing information will help me make connections among multiple texts. 3 – analyze and synthesize information to draw a conclusion about the text 2 – identify sources and information that can be combined to discuss one topic 1 – describe how to analyze and synthesize information

Gathering Information Decide and narrow down on a topic. Need to search a variety of sources for the information.

Analyzing and Evaluating Information Ask yourself if the information is reliable, up-to-date, and relevant for your topic. Keep in mind where a reading selection is from. This information will help you evaluate how current, biased, or complete a source is or not.

Critically Evaluating Sources Questions to Ask About Sources Library Reference Materials Textbooks Websites Magazine and Newspapers Is it up-to-date? Is it objective? (factual rather than an opinion) Is it complete or only a brief excerpt on a topic? Is it credible, from a reliable source? Is it firsthand information? You need to be able to recognize and read standardized citations.

Assessment Connection This benchmark will test you by using text as well as graphs, charts, and diagrams. You might need to evaluate a piece of information, analyze the meaning of a specific text, or determine details that can support a particular point of view.
