Expectations / Grading
* Any question that’s italicized / bolded is worth 1 point
* You are individually assessed—look for your own unique sources, especially online. Different websites, articles, etc.
* The goal: to have multiple sources to build your case
Databases
* They’re free! Thanks to school / public library subscriptions, you can access subscriber-only content
* They’re hand-picked, often allowing a higher level of quality in the sources available
The Web
* We’ll use Google, Wikipedia, etc., in more effective ways. Knowing how to “power search” is important. Don’t just click the first link you see.
* Follow the steps to distinguish the various kinds of websites. .edu isn’t the same as .com, for instance.
* Knowing who makes the website is important. Can you trust that source of information? Is it biased? Accurate? Understandable?
