Internet Research Presentation 
VIDEO TO WATCH

Today we will be learning the difference between good sources and questionable sources on the internet. We will watch a short video about different research sites and follow a PowerPoint presentation.  Please fill in your notes from the class discussion on the Internet Research Presentation Worksheet provided.  That worksheet will also be used for tomorrow's discussion, and you will hand it in at the end of the week.  The Worksheet will count as a quiz for this Project.  Below is a link to the presentation today:

TODAY'S Practical Exercise:
(Write at the bottom of your WORKSHEET)
You must write down the day of the week of the birthday for the United States Secretary of State for 2013.  You must also write down each specific website you used to find the information.  You may not reference Wikipedia or any Search Engine Website (Google, Bing, etc.)

Make sure you understand how to do research online.  You will need to prove that you can find and cite sources on the next BIOGRAPHY Project at the end of the week.  Good Luck!
