Address the following in 150 to 200 words:

· What strategies did you use to gather reliable information for your research paper? I used my university library mostly because I needed to make sure that my sources are reliable, and I know if I used sources out of there they will be peer reviewed. When I gather sources from the internet I used reliable sources such as .edu. and .gov because I was told they were credible sources.

· What other strategies might you use? Provide a rationale for your choices.

Before I start to evaluate and gather information for my topic, I had to think about what I wanted to focus on in my paper and the topics that I wanted to talk about, so that gave me an idea of what information i needed the articles, magazines, and books to provide for me so that is how I made my choice of what sources to use.
