Evaluating Sources for Exams: Beyond Expectations and Assumptions

In exam settings, it's crucial to go beyond mere expectations when evaluating sources. Relying solely on preconceived notions, such as anticipating sensational language from newspapers, is insufficient. Instead, students must analyze the source carefully, identifying and quoting specific examples to judge its merit. This approach will enhance critical thinking skills and improve overall assessment performance, ensuring a comprehensive understanding of content and context.

  1. Disclaimer – Remember, in an exam it is not enough to simply expect to see these features. You must look closely at the source and judge each source on merit. For example you might expect a newspaper to use sensational, dramatic language but you must find examples of this in the source to quote. A newspaper might not always have sensational or dramatic language.
