Question

Which two of the following are good research practices?

— Write down all the sources you use for research.
— Credit the blogs you use for your research.
— Interview your family and friends to gather information on the topic.
— Properly credit all the sources you use.
— Copy information from sources word for word

Answer 1

I would say A and D. B implies that you are using blogs which isn't good for research, C would mean that you are using family which isn't credible and can give you a bias, and E is ridiculous.

Answer 2

• Write down all the sources you use for research.
• Properly credit all the sources you use.

Step-by-step explanation:

- Blogs are not reliable sources

- If your family members or friends are not specialists in your topic of observation, their inputs are not that relevant for a high-level research

- Never copy from sources. Study, review, interpretate a write your own ideas. At the same time, quotes are allowed.
