Day 3
Study Notes:
Truth is the reality behind facts. Facts are the available data.
Accuracy means not only getting the objectively verifiable ‘fact’ right – names, places, dates of
birth, quotes, the results of sporting fixtures – but accurately reporting opinions expressed by those
who you report.
Here are some of the indications that information viewed is accurate and true.
1. The same information can be found in other reliable sources.
Take notes of the main facts presented in the material viewed. Compare it with
multiple sources. Are the information or facts presented present in other sources? If the
information is the same in multiple sources then you have a truthful and accurate
information.
2. The sources used for documentation are known to be generally reliable.
Establishing the accuracy of multimedia sources can be challenging because they often
represent a combination of facts, opinions and perspectives from different individuals. Do not
trust anonymous sources.
3. The author of the information is known to have expertise on that subject.
Determining the knowledge and expertise of the subject or the speaker in a multimedia
source is very important. Anyone can make an assertion or a statement about something but
only someone who knows that thing can make a reasonably reliable statement or assertion
about it. Research the person who is making the statement.
4. The presentation is free from logical fallacies or errors.

An important aspect of accuracy is the intellectual integrity of the item. Errors of logic
occur primarily in the presentation of conclusions, opinions, interpretations, editorials, ideas,
etc.
5. Quotations are “in context’” – the meaning of the original work is kept in the work which quotes the
original.
Statements quoted in the material viewed must be quoted correctly and accurately. If it
is used in context or in the material viewed, the meaning of the original statement must be
kept and no opinion and assumptions about it should be made.
Here are some indications that information may not be accurate and not true:
1. Facts cannot be verified or are contradicted on the other sources.
2. Sources used are known to be unreliable or highly biased.
3. Sources used or cited is inadequate or non-existent.
4. Quotations are taken out of context and given a different meaning.
5. Presence of one or more logical fallacies.
