So, we have been continuing with our debates. We learned about finding reliable sources. So, for this post, I had to find 1 reliable source for my debate topic and 1 unreliable source for my debate topic. So, I found out that http://www.huffingtonpost.com/dr-matthew-alpert-od/blue-light_b_5570433.html is a reliable source. This website is a very reliable source because:
- It has an About Us page to write about their goals and expectations for the new year.
- The author is also very professional. The DR. is very professional and knows a lot about eyes and how to prevent eyes from blue light.His name is Dr. Matthew Alpert, O.D.
- The website has really good information and it is all true and very reliable.
- It has a Copy Righted Sign.
-It is also updated because they just recently posted it in 2014. It is just a few months aways form 2015. So, it is very reliable.
- They do list out some of their sources like: "A recent study by Bank of America"
- We could also email the at author if we have like any questions.
An example of a non-reliable source is: http://www.debate.org/debates/Limiting-screen-time-for-children-under-16/1/
Maybe some of you might think that debate.org is a reliable source. Then it is ,BUT the information is not that reliable.
In the website, people just sign up and comment on other people's debate and it is just their opinion. And in a debate we need reliable sources to fight against the other team. So,all in all debate.org is just a website that gives you other people's opinion. So, debate.org is not a reliable source. Then, if you are debating, you can take like according to debate.org, 70% of people voted for............ So, you can use that but you can't use peoples opinion, because you can't trust anything online without a reliable source.
