Match the strategy to its description: Ask the right questions.
Different sources of information represent different levels of detail and dependability. Surface information (e.g., sources for general audiences) may be useful and valid. However, you should also go further and explore deeper levels (e.g., sources for trade, business, academic, and scholarly audiences).
Find out what multiple experts say and examine the points on which they agree and disagree.
The information you find may be incomplete or misleading. Look for common ground among sources; determine if the sources are driven by an agenda, and check each source's credentials.
Ask a specific, narrow, question instead of researching an overly general topic.
Most topics can be viewed from more than two perspectives. If your research yields indefinite findings, don't try to force a definite conclusion.
