LIBS 110 Module 2, Research Question Assignment

Note: Please read Chapter 2, watch the Module 2 lecture video, and review all Module 2 materials before working on this assignment.

Exploring Your Topic & Pre-Search

Select a topic related to information literacy from the class Discussion Board. Only three people may start with the same broad topic. What broad topic did you choose?

Government censorship.

Go to the Information Literacy Research Guide. Information literacy categories are listed on the left-hand side of the page. (Examples: Access to Information, Algorithmic Bias,…). Find your broad topic within these pages. Select one specific resource from the resource links provided on the topic pages in the Information Literacy Research Guide. What is the title of the resource that you selected?

Information ethics.

Read the resource (if it is a book, read the summaries and chapter titles, if an article or video, read/view the whole thing). In 3-4 sentences, what is this resource about?

The information ethics is contained with the expected behaviors and practices that people should pottery while using the technology. Also talks about the rights that we have as the members of the society while we are using the technology. It as well outlines how the ISP should be enhancing the security of the data transmitted in their network.

Do a Google Search on your broad topic. What are at least three specific issues or aspects dealing with this topic that you are interested in? (PRO TIP: If you find that you are not interested in this topic, go back to step one and pick a different topic from the Discussion Board and start again) LIBS 110 Module 2, Research Question Assignment

The topic is leading to an understanding how the digital security is being compromised, loss of trust with the internet platforms and the manner in which the personal data can be used against you.

What types of information did you see in your Google search? How did they help you focus your topic? (PRO TIP: If your Google Search didn’t help you, try searching using different keywords) (PRO TIP: If you don’t know what is meant by “types of information,” read Chapter 2 of your book)

Well, google helped me to understand the manner in which information is leaked and also give the statistics of how the activity is increasing around the world.

Write down the 5 W’s for your research topic, (Who, What, When, Where, Why) of your topic, as explained in the Library Tutorial #1. If you need a “How,” include that as well.

“who” will include the government and all the ISP who allows sharing of their customers data.

“what” will include what is the focus of the practice.

“when” will discuss when the information and the practice is essential and when it is a hazard to the members of the society.

“where” I shall discuss about the point the information is relevant and essential to be extraction and where it should not be extracted.

“Why” will give us the reason of having the information extracted.

“how” will explain the manner in which the information is being extracted

How that you have done some “pre-search,” write a first draft of your research question. (PRO TIP: If you have not read Chapter 2, viewed the lecture, or read all of the Module 2 materials, you must do this before you can write your research question)
