Whenever you have to complete a task or write an essay and you need to look for information to complete it.
First, you need to choose a topic. Once you know what you want to write about, you should find background information to decide on a more specific topic or issue you will write about. After reading information related to your topic, you should identify key sources. This step will help you understand a topic better and know which sources are reliable to use in your text. Then you should ALWAYS evaluate sources to decide which ones are worth using to know what information you will include in your text. Some sources may have information that is not related to your topic and should be discarded. Then you should write your text and use strong supporting evidence to make your case. Once your text is done, you should always cite the sources you used.
