In class today

Today in class we went over sites on the Internet you can trust to get information from. Wiki can be used but not as a primary source, just to gather background information from. Also, people who write on wiki cite there information from websites they got it from. Also most sites that end in gov can be trusted because they are ran by the government and checked by another person. This is because if there is false information in the article they wrote, then they can fix it. Also, people who are doing true websites can get fired if they do write false information and publish it. However, most sites, but not all that end in com can't be trusted. Anybody can make a website, and then write .com and the information could be totally wrong. In class, i learned that a page that looked very plain ended up being a non trusted website. When i write papers for English i know now to go to the John Carroll website, then to data bases from there. On that site pages like sirs and grolier can be used. I now know what to use and what not to use on school papers.
