Research Questions
What social impacts does the Internet have on us?
My first choice would be to use the World Wide Web to find a reliable source It is such a broad topic so there would be many possible resources and subcategories to find. I would also consider using a book or magazine. Certain books and magazines that focus on technology would probably have some good information on this topic.
What modern uses do we have for the internet?
I would use a subject encyclopedia. An encyclopedia would give in-depth information on all the uses available to us from the internet. Other than that, I would use the World Wide Web as well as web-based news because they are updated regularly.
Does the internet have positive or negative benefits on society?
I would use newspapers, web-based news, books, and magazines. This is a social topic, so most social media of some sort would probably have some information on this.

Ken,
ReplyDeleteYou did a good job of looking at multiple sources for each of your topics and in finding both background and foreground sources, however, the directions ask for background and foreground sources for each question. Remember, we do our background searching, then move on to the types of resources that can be used in a college assignment. Go back and look at the handouts if this is still not clear.
Keep up the good work,
Sue
