Reading, note-taking, and evidence-gathering Read with the gaps in your evidence and source list in mind. Pause after each paragraph and in the margin, summarize: What in this section is relevant to my question? When you find evidence that fits the criteria of your evidence and source list, mark it and add the citation to your list.

Self-Check: Evidence and Source List Have I clearly articulated my research question? Have I divided my question into two accurate and logical parts: describing my concern and demonstrating the influence of a particular factor on my concern? For each part of my question, have I listed a minimum of 3 pieces of specific evidence I will need? In the phrasing of my evidence, have I identified the type of evidence I need, using research vocabulary like primary, secondary, tertiary, anecdotal, statistical, contextual, etc.? Have I noted for myself the evidence I have already located and the source it appears in? Have I developed a plan to address the gaps in my research? How will I locate the evidence I haven’t yet found?
