These include books, journals, newspapers, television recordings, interviews, surveys, and websites. Using a variety of sources gives you a better overview of your topic. Also, depending on your topic the use of both scholarly and popular materials may be appropriate. Remember, usefulness of sources is impacted by the topic you choose and the points you are trying to make. As long as the sources you are using are credible, relevant , current and you make any arguments in your presentations using ethical persuasion (persuasion in the best interest in the audience that is not false or misleading) then using popular sources may be acceptable. Remember the URL domain is a good indication of source reliability. The most credible sources are .edu (education site), .gov (government site), and .org (organization site). Less credible domains are .com (commercial site) and .net (network). The GHC Library website has a license to GALILEO (Georgia Library Learning Online) which provides access to a variety of databases with scholarly research sources.Your informative presentation must include a Bibliography (called a Works Cited in MLA). It is a list of all sources used inresearch along with important information such as author, title, publisher, publication, date of publication, website and date accessed, and notation of any metadatabase ( for example: Galileo) used to retrieve information. Each listed sourceis called a citation. There are several citation styles. The most common are MLA (Modern Language Association), APA (American Psychological Association), Turabian, and Chicago. Each style differs slightly in
