At The Learning Luminarium, this definitely ranks as one of the most commonly asked questions. The goal of this article is not to list down all the specific sources as OBU aims for students to have the competency of independently evaluating whether a source is good – all by themselves. In line with that, how can a student build the skill of evaluating a source?

There are 3 factors to consider for good reference sources for the OBU Research Report:

  1. Is this source read and evaluated by a professional audience?
  2. Is the source recent?
  3. Do you understand what you are reading?

As referencing is a common reason for failure, our OBU Mentors has written for its students a full, 4-page article on the various categories of sources and its usefulness for the OBU research analysis report. We hope you come on board The Learning Luminarium OBU Mentorship program and avail yourself to such study resources!
