DO NOW​

• As always, complete the daily check-in. This helps me see how you all are doing and lets me know who is actually checking up on the website.

AGENDA

• If you haven't yet, watch this video on fact-checking by John Green (also linked below) that I linked to a few days ago: it's great information during the Corona Virus outbreak. Take notes on what steps are helpful in fact-checking something you come across on the internet or social media. 
• Then, in a paragraph respond to the Google Classroom discussion question "According to John Green, why do some people fall into the trap of believing disinformation? What does he suggest people do about it? And what problems YOU think disinformation causes in our society today?" Note that other people can, and hopefully will, see and comment on your post, so write carefully. Try to have this wrapped up by Friday or Saturday.

After watching the video and responding on Google Classroom

• For the next two days and beginning of next week, I just want you focusing on finding your 4 sources (2 database and 2 internet) and taking notes. Check out yesterday's post for a video and the database login info.
• Try to have your sources found and notated by next Wednesday.

• Next week we'll cover some citation stuff.
