Day 1

How can we determine what is useful and what is not?


By: Celina Villa, Marisol Seyk-Malanche, Olivia Champagne

Day 1 Instruction

Opening
The days compelling question and objectives are written on the
door when you come in:
How can we determine what is useful and what is not?

Reflect on the picture shown on the projector. Review the


critical thinking questions provided by the teacher: “Is this a
credible source, why or why not?”
This is not a credible source because Abraham Lincoln died
before the internet was created, and therefore, could not have
said this quote.

Lesson

1. Using the guided note sheet, you take notes on the


presentation and use this time to learn how to tell a
non-credible source from a credible source.
2. You find someone with the same color shirt as you, one
to be the scribe and one the speaker. The scribe will
write down their takeaways they have together. Then
the speaker will share with the class.
3. Together, you watch the youtube video assigned by your
teacher, and as a scribe, you write notes that you and
your partner find to be important from the video

Knowledge Check
4. Your partner shares the three most important notes that
you both decided on together from the video. You take
notes of at least one point from each pair of the other
students in class.
5. You reflect on the ideas shared in the class and go back
to the importance of credible sources.

Activity
Small Group:
1. From the group of 2, you are instructed to find another
group of 2 and become a group of 4. You are handed
an article, and have to determine if it is credible or not
and will have to utilize the internet to determine if the
author's website is credible. Using a checklist provided
by the teacher is filled out by one of your group
members while you work together to determine if the
article you were provided is credible. You come to the
conclusion that it is not a credible article because: it is
a .com site, the other articles on the site are not-credible,
there is no author, and a cross-check of the statistics
shows them to be incorrect.

2. You come back for group discussion and provide your
groups reasonings as to why the article is not credible
and you provide one of your reasons for believing .

Closing
Stand up with a blank piece of paper. Multiple articles are
posted around the room and you choose 3 and determine
whether or not they are credible. You provide 2 explanations
as to why the three articles you have chosen are credible or
not credible.

Reflect (Possible Homework)


As a class, you talk about how to tell a credible source from a
not credible source. You discuss the major points of credibility
in online articles. Your teacher provides two guiding questions:
Why is this important?
This is important because we should make sure our
information is correct and that it makes our writing look more
reliable.
How does credibility affect us?
It can mean the difference between having a statistically
correct paper and to be considered a reliable writer.
