TRIANGULATION

What is the information task?

David Warlick, Evaluating Internet-based Information, A Goals-Based Approach.

From David Warlick:

Are there new questions to ask of new types of sources?

http://21cif.com/rkitp/assessment/v1n5/valenza1.5_blogeval.html.

Thinking about wikis as research sources •What is the purpose of the collaborative project and who began it?•How rich is the wiki? How many pages does it contain?•How many people appear to be involved in editing the wiki? Does it seem that the information is improved by having a variety of participants? How heavily edited are the pages you plan to use?•Does the project appear to be alive? Are participants continuing to edit it?•Does the information appear to be accurate? Can you validate it? •Can you use other sources to triangulate the information?•How useful is it to your research?

Thinking about Twitter . . .

Who is the tweeter?How many voices are you comparing?Have you used hashtags (#) to gather a variety of voices?Can you use other sources to triangulate the information?If you are focusing on one voice:

How many followers does he or she have?Is the tweeter an individual? Does he or she represent a publication or an

organization?What does the profile reveal?What type of language or vocabulary does

the tweeter use?How useful is it to your research?

Considering also: What is the researcher trying to accomplish?“From this standpoint, we would not ask, "Is the author qualified?", but, "What aspects of the author's background help me accomplish my goal?" Under certain circumstances, a web page published by a neo-nazi organization might actually be appropriate for an assignment, while other resources, produced by people with credential would not. It depends on what the student wants to accomplish.

This approach actually serves three interesting purposes. • The student is focused on drawing supporting or appropriate

information into the project rather than just filtering "bad" information out.

• The student gathers information about the information. • As students approaches information with their goals to

accomplish, they are less likely to be influenced by the goals of those who generated and published the information, which has interesting implications for media literacy.”
