Evaluating Websites

1.) i think the CIA World Factbook is an appropriate source for a research paper because it has links to go to its sources and it provides full information on a subject.

2.) I think that the Message To Garcia is a appropriate source for a research paper because it has direct quotes, a biography of Elbert Hubbard and the Original Manuscript.

3.) I do not think The Council On Foreign Relations is an appropriate source because it is not direct enough and it is fairly difficult to read and obtain information. Also the website does not provide any proof of its information and has no sources.

4.)  I do not think The NASA Kids' Club is an appropriate source because it is full of games and is not very informative about anything. i don't think Elmo going to mars will help us with writing a paper...

5.) I think the "Young Voters Don't Give Up On Obama" is an appropriate source because it has valuable information and sources to back up that information. also it has persuasive videos and speakers to help get its point across.

6.) I think The New York Times is an appropriate source because it has a lot of information and has many sources to prove it is accurate.

7.) I do not think Fox News is a good source because it does not have enough sources in my opinion to be able to back up its statements, even though it is very fluent with its facts, it is just not enough to persuade me.

8.) I think Wikipedia is an appropriate source because it has a great amount of information, more than enough sources to show where they got the information and it is very thorough about giving information on a subject.

9.) this is a wonderful source!!! it has links and information about Socrates and Elbert Hubbard! The Best!
