Prompt 4

Thanks to the internet, people have more access to more info than any time in history. People can instantly find info on almost any topic in the time it takes to type a couple of words and a click of a mouse. But we often know so little about the source of this info, including its reliability and the qualifications of the person who wrote it. If we don't know its source, information is not much good to us.

Assignment:

1. Do people need to know the source of any information before they use it?

--I think people should know because it will help them just in case if they want to go back to that page/website. Also to find if the website or source is from a safe website or a virus.

2. Plan and write an essay in which you develop your point of view on this issue. Support the postition with reasoning and examples taken from your reading, studies, experience, or observations.

--For i usually always use the internet to help me out on the projects or essays or writtings. But know that i think about it i usually never check the sources sometimes i do but not very often. Most of the time i just look for an asnwer or idea but never mind to look at the source unless the teacher tells me i need to include where i got the information from.

Now i do consider to look at the source bause i never know if what they state in the page is true or not. Or even if the source is safe because you never know what the persond behind the source is thinking or doing. People should be able to check the website with out them feeling that was is in the page is false or information is stolen from another source little things like these are very important.
