chapter 5. Evaluating sources.

In this chapter it explains how to evaluate your sources. Things to evaluate are; relevance, evidence, the author, the publisher, timeliness, comprehensiveness, and genre. You must also evaluate the relevance and credibility of digital sources, and the accuracy of field sources. Some questions you need to ask yourself when evaluating are; what style of writing does the genre use, how is evidence used, how is the genre organized, what citation style is used, and how is the document designed? This chapter explains in detail how to evaluate your sources to know whether or not your sources are credible and a good source to have. This chapter will help when choosing sources to cite in my works cited page.
