collecting it. Primary sources are original data you have collected on your
topic to help you answer your question. This data should be directly connected

an expert on your topic; photographs you take at a specific site; comment
threads on your topic from a public Facebook or social media site; Reddit
comment threads on your topic; Twitter feeds (must be public); product reviews;
a survey, YouTube videos, etc. This section is important because if you

needed. In addition to sharing what primary data, please also share your method
of collecting it
