Selecting your information

Picture
Finding what you need for your assignment
​It is tempting, sometimes, to just 'copy and paste' from the Internet but you really need to present the information in your own words so you show your understanding about your topic. It is OK to quote other people’s work, however you must always reference it.
How can you make sure that you select exactly the information you need and organise it in such a way that you can use it when you put your assignment together? 
The six topics below are very important at this stage of the Research Process and they will provide you with tools to help you organise your information as you collect it.
