Hello,
For my next speech topic, I will need to gather my research information carefully. The research and the author(s) I plan to use will be evaluated for soundness and credibility. I will also research the author. I will take note if there is a pattern of topics the author like to talk about. What are his/her views? Do they make sense to me? Can the facts be supported? Learning about the author will assist me in the evaluation process. I have heard that the library offers an amazing array of resources, and would like to consider learning more about all of the data bases of information available to me. I thought that the suggestion about recording the bibliographic information was extremely helpful. Recording the information would not only keep me organized, but would prevent duplicate work. I really liked Dory’s speech. Everyone has a personal story, and after listening to her speech, I learned that my parents did not teach me that family is an important part of life which is really sad.

Hello Max,
ReplyDeleteIn fact the library does have great resources. The databases that our library has are diverse and even easy to access from home(which makes everything easier). You might also want to stop by and talk to a librarian, they are extremely helpful and you can actually tell they enjoy doing their job. I also liked Dory's speech and I felt the same way you did. My parents and I actually lived with my grandpa for a while, and I can't say it was that rewarding. Now that I look at it from her perspective, maybe I could have been more patience and give family more importance.
