All for your consideration. When
collecting or presenting data to use as information there are some key points
you should always understand and implement into your work.
·
Valid
- All your information should be correct and defendable, if any of your
information is incorrect you will have a hard time proving your point.
·
Reliable
- Just like “valid” all your work needs to be trustworthy. To do this you
may want to do some research into the source of your data or collect it
yourself.
·
Timely
- To make your information effective and useful you need it to be
timely, your data needs to have been sourced within a reasonable time. EG
information from 10 years ago may not be relevant now.
·
Fit
for purpose - Just like relevant information your work needs to be suitable for
your audience and the point you are trying to get across. Keep it brief and to
the point, someone reading your information may get bored and lose interest if
your information is long and not too the point.
·
Accessible
- To make your information Accessible you need to make it easy to find as no one
will see it if they can’t find it. If you want your information to be public
you can set up a blog on a popular site as many people visit them.
·
Sufficiently
accurate - You need to make it accurate using solid facts not guesses as someone
reading your information will find holes and it will be useless.
·
Relevant.
All your work need to Relevant to the point you are trying to make (it’s great
that man-u scored two goals last week but what does that have to do with
shipping in the south ) if your information has nothing to do with your point
readers will be confused and your work will become useless.
·
Understandable.
This last one is easy you need to make your information Understandable this
means no spelling mistakes or the wrong use of grammar. Also you make want to
find out who your audience will be such as what language they will be using so
you can change your information to help them.
