Find, evaluate, select, and synthesize both online and print sources that examine a topic from multiple perspectives. Integrate sources through summarizing, paraphrasing, and quotation from sources to develop and support one’s own ideas. Generate, format, and edit writing using appropriate technologies Field research, also known as primary research, involves using human subjects to get information. These methods can be formalized (ex: a politician devises a phone poll to be given to millions of citizens, and the results are analyzed by a team of statisticians), or used informally (ex: a student interviews his grandmother about life during the Great Depression). Field research can be valuable since you receive your information straight from the source, or sources, themselves. Since you are in the driver’s seat, you can customize your research to suit the needs of your particular project. Three methods will be discussed in this lesson: interviews, observations, and surveys.
