PLN week 2-1

I read an article called "Shhh! I'm Googling My Facts..." by Dave, this article was about how students use different kinds of resourses to find out information about school projects. Also, how teachers complain about the sources that students use to get information, but then again they don't exactly tell us what not to use. I agree with what Dave is trying to say. All that he is trying to say is that teachers rely to much on text book and resources that are exclusive then complain about how this information is not very resourceful.

It is very true that the internet is not a very good resource to get any kinds of facts or to research on because I have had my own share of experiances with research on the internet. I can really relate to the little story about cool cat teachers son and his google experiance with 9/11. There is so many junk on the internet that you can't find anything that is a fact anymore.

This applies to every subject in school for me cause in almost every subject there is a textbook involved in every class. I think that is why this is a concern of every class. I think that teachers should be able to do this.

We have to practice what we preach, and we have to practice it out
loud!
