Question

information does not require a citation? Select the two correct answers. (1 point)
a personal anecdote from the student’s experience
a fact that most readers are likely to already know
a recent interview with a local political leader
an audio clip from a nightly news broadcast
a social media post made by a fellow student

Answer 1

The two types of information that do not require a citation are:

1. a personal anecdote from the student’s experience - This is the student's own experience and does not need to be cited.
2. a fact that most readers are likely to already know - Common knowledge does not require citation, as it is generally accepted information that most people are familiar with.

The other options would typically require citation to acknowledge the sources from which the information is derived.
