University of Central Florida Drug and Substance Abuse in America Discussion

 

You need to choose three different types of research from the list below:

  • Newspapers (local, university, national)
  • Reports or websites from government agencies, universities, and/or NGOs
  • Scholarly research (reports or websites on a topic rather than academic articles)
  • Facts and statistics compiled by government agencies and/or NGOs or USF
  • Interviews with experts and/or impacted individuals
  • Surveys (social media makes doing surveys easy)

Once you select three pieces of research that can help you solve your problem, you need to summarize one piece. 

Your summaries should contain: 

  • What is the purpose of the article or source?
  • Identify three pieces of evidence (quotes, statistics, percentages, etc.) that explain, relate to, or support your problem
  • Provide an overview of how you can use the research to explain or solve the problem
  • Explain how you know the research is trustworthy or reputable
