Today in class (day 5)

Today in class Mr. Schick did an experiment. He told us not to always trust a website. By doing this, we went to a list of links and examined each and every one of them. Looking for the ones that weren’t reliable was very hard. You have to look for very numerous details. Such has, if it mainly an opinion and its layout. An opinion is someone’s own thoughts and actions. Many people have different opinions. Such as one person may like soup while another person may not. It is just a matter of how people think and what they like. Another thing to tell if a website is a bad source is by the layout. The layout shows if it was by a company or a “sweaty man in his basement”. If it is all nice and from a familiar company, it is most likely a reliable source and you can get your information. If it is messy and has incorrect grammar it is most likely a very reliable source. That is what happened in class today
