Assignment | Engineering Discipline Project (Guzman): Information Sources

ENGR 1201 | Prof. Guzman (Summer 2023)

Tip: How Information is Created

Some of the questions for the discipline paper require very current information. Information source types have different publication time frames. The information in a newspaper source contains today's news. Other questions require specific trade-related (industry-related) information. The "inside knowledge" of a trade journal may be more important than the immediacy of the publication date. Pause and consider which types of sources in this guide will give the best or most appropriate information.
