As technology has become
commercialized and everyone can
create and upload various
information on the internet,
validity and reliability of those can
be compromised and misleading.
Here are some points that we should take into
consideration to check the validity and reliability of
information:
Who is the author of the source?
How did the source get its

information?
What if the source you've found
doesn't have references?
Who is the author of the source?
This question points out the credentials of the

author. Is he or she a recognized expert in the field?
Are they representing an organization? If so, what is
the organization's mission and goals? If you're still
unsure, try browsing the internet on the author or
the organization he or she belongs.
How did the source get its
information?
This question refers to references used in the
source. Look at a few of the references. Do they look
like reliable sources of information? Does it look like
the author is citing the source correctly? Use your
best judgment in validating.
What if the source you've found
doesn't have references?
This question pertains to further checking the
validity of the source. See if you can fact-check the
information in other ways. For instance, if you're
looking at a news article that quotes experts in a
field, browse the internet on the expert's name and
see what other information you can find on him or
her.
Author of the source
According to DOH Region IV-A Director Paula
Paz N. Sydiongco, a total of 56, 821 patients
have already recovered from the virus in
CALABARZON. There were only 5, 521 active
cases and are currently undergoing treatment in
various health facilities in the region as of
December 8, 2020. This could also be viewed on
their website on ro4a.doh.gov.ph.
Reference
When we determine the source as
"good", we say that it has validity.
Likewise, counterchecking the
background of the author and source
on the internet would greatly help
establish the validity of a certain
material.
Your ability to distinguish valid
and reliable source is a
foundational skill that is central
to developing and analyzing
arguments. These are the
important points to consider in
evaluating the reliability and
validity of a source.
