The San Francisco State University (SFSU) library is rich with online databases
these data bases are 100% reliable since one has to pay. sfsu dont have to pay for these resources.
Scholarly sources
one can also search up on google for scholarly sources by clicking it in the options to make your search ony have scholarly sources.
scholarly sources are generally found in different, more specialized databases
you can use the SFSU library to find more data bases to find more reliable sources
DO I TRUST THEN CREDIBILITY OF THIS SOURCE? Why or why not?
even if you dont know if a source is reliable one can make a general assumption sometimes
In the case of all popular sources, as a critical, flexible reader you have to evaluate the credibility of the online, popular source you read—or in other words, you have to always consider whether or not you believe it, and why
you can also search up the aurthor to find out. if he can be trusted or not
In this chapter, we want you to be open to new sources of information and knowledge, such as YouTube and other social media, in addition to popular sources such as news outlets, websites, and blogs.
One can make sure sources that come from youtube or social media are reliable by seeing the following. if it has millions of followers it will be more likeley to be more reliable than a page that has a couple of thousands of followers.
Your search terms should generally draw from your Inquiry Question,and include the key words and concepts that you have narrowed down with your instructor and peer
Using search terms can make it easier to find sources. You can mix and match different search terms to find a braoder selection of sources.
Before consulting various databases of sources, like google, you can prepare by brainstorming various search terms you’ll try out to find sources of information and knowledge
One can also use sfsu reasources to get data bases. Using the data bases from the sfsu libaary websidte can instantly make the source reliable.
Therefore, we can build on your prior knowledge and add to your schema of research databases, search terms, and evaluating the credibility of sources.
we know what sources are reliable as we research more and more. for ex we know ny times is reliable because most ppl have researched it and know that it is reliable
We are (most likely) all familiar with google, and we’re also probably used to considering whether we believe a source or not, how legit it is,andwhether it is, to use the parlance of our times, “fake news.
Us as people who use google almost on a daily basis can already have some understanding on what is fase and what is true. this is because we know basic things like .org .com .gov etc and we know what is more reliable. same with news sources. For the basic news sources we know what news can be baised like fox or what source can be reliable like ny times.
ccordingly, we have adapted as a society (species?) to read, write, and research digitally, largely on our phones, in social media platforms, and through popular search engines
This is true for this day of age because it is more easy to get access to readings through the internet
So now we know that real-life experience andinterest-based topics matter, and asking your own questions about those topics matters
This is why people are going to college in a way. People/students want to learn more about their major so they always have questions.
Here, reading is more about satisfying your personal curiosities about life’s conundrums
This is the reason people go to school(college) to find something they are interested in. In high school it could have seemed like it was just about memorizing because they didnt really have the classes students were interested in.
sking your own questions, questions about real-life issues that matter to you, that hit close to home, that are relatedto your experienc
It is no longer abaout just finding the answer to the question/prompt. Students are now suposed to be asking questions and finding the answers to thoughs questions.
the “canvas” or frame in which you are working, e.g., page or screen, as well as the space between items within it.
can seem overwelming if there isnt space
Balance -
balance so the veiwer wont feel uneasy/overwhelmed/confused
Be aware of where you want the viewer’s eyes to look
one can then guide the veiwer to different parts
annotating encourages you to mark additional elements of the text—those beyond just “the important parts.
annotating would be more preferable than just highlighting because one can add their own ideas instead of just going off what the text says.
make notes, you comment, react, and raise questions in the margins of your text
one can use the note to go back and get a hit as to what the text was about. one can also use the notes to remind them of what they were thinking when they read though the first time.
academic discourse
in short academic discourse is more formal than what one would use on a daily basis. Leading more towards formal writing where one would write more complex and percise
Working together
new ideas/perspectives
Being over 5 min. late x3 = one absence
dicipline
nleash the power ofintrinsic motivation because all of us tend to develop more enthusiasm for, and ultimately becomemore skillful at, pursuing questions about which we’re genuinely curious than those handed to us bysomeone else
there are a lot of factors that go into doing this. for ex the student will more likely have more enthusiasm for something theyre intrested in.
Thus, every time we ask students “What was the name of the town in which the characters in thisstory lived?” we leave less time for questions like “Why do you think the characters never lefthome?
it is more easy to grade a question that is either right or wrong than it is to grade a question that needs to have one analize something.
What’s required is a continual focus on creating a classroom that is about thinking rather than justabsorbing information.
this reminds me of a math vs lit class. one typically cant ask deep questions in a math class because there are straight foward solutions but in a lit class one can ask deep questions/find various answers.
The least interesting questions are thosewith straightforward factual answers
opintion based/open ended questions will have someone more intrigued
