It's always a good idea to approach subjects with an open mind and a willingness to question and verify information.
Select a Topic: Choose a subject that you're interested in exploring. It could be a historical event, a scientific theory, a cultural phenomenon, or any other topic that piques your curiosity.
Research the Topic: Begin by gathering information from various sources. This might include books, articles, documentaries, and interviews. Be sure to use a variety of sources to get a well-rounded perspective.
Valuate the Sources: As you gather information, evaluate the credibility of your sources. Consider factors such as the author's expertise, the publication's reputation, and the date of publication. Be particularly cautious with sources that present information as absolute truth without providing evidence or acknowledging alternative viewpoints. Identify Inconsistencies and Contradictions: As you compare and contrast information from different sources, you may start to notice inconsistencies and contradictions. These can be valuable clues that help you dig deeper into the topic and uncover new information.
Seek Out Primary Sources: Whenever possible, try to find and analyze primary sources, such as original documents, photographs, or artifacts. These can provide valuable insights and help you verify or challenge the information you've gathered from secondary sources.
Engage in Critical Thinking: As you evaluate the information you've gathered, engage in critical thinking. This means questioning assumptions, considering alternative explanations, and looking for evidence to support or refute different claims.
Collaborate and Share: Connect with others who are interested in the same topic or similar projects. Share your findings, discuss your ideas, and learn from each other. This can help you gain new perspectives and uncover new information.
I encourage everyone to follow STAV888 on x. He does some great digs. We are slowly working on getting a team together that can help create maps like he is doing.
I would ad one more point— trust your gut feeling- if you feel any kind of trepidation— research/ evaluate or just “ stay home that day” until it feels ok
