Chapter 8
Planning and preparing for your search of sources is very important because you want to have a wide variety of options. I am going to compile a list of maybe 20 keywords to search for in different combinations in order to find multiple credible sources. I will also use a Boolean search using these combinations in variation to collect data. The VA and veterans benefits and services and the quality of those have recently been in the news so I can use database that focus on newspapers and weekly magazines as well. Government publications and documents will be of great use also. I plan to stay away from broad internet search engines because a lot of the information I am finding is not true nor credible. Searching an author from a source I have already determined to be credible through Google or Yahoo is a much more viable option. The book addresses using social network as an option of searching for information. I highly disagree with this because they are so many fake and outrageous articles that have no sources or credibility what so ever. Video and documentary from personal experience is something that would be useful to me as well.
